    Question post dialup screen for adsl


    i want to know how to bring the "Post dial-up screen" or equivalent if someone is using a broadband connection that uses an ADSL modem, utilizes the "PPPoE" protocol and hence does not need any number to connect to isp and only username and password is required.

    if someone is using a dailup connection using a dial-up modem then the post dailup screen can be bought by enableing the "show terminal window" option in modem properties but what in this case?

    my main aim is to go the isp router promt where i can manually input userId and password

    I am using HUAWEI smartAx MT841 adsl modem

    an interesting thing this modem when turned on assigns 192.168.1.1 as the default gateway address (its own address as it has an in built switch)

    when i log into this using telnet (port 23) the default id and pass supplied by the manufacturer and type ? i get this

    utilizes the "PPPoE" protocol and hence does not need any number to connect to isp
    you will still require a tel # for your system to 'dial'
    the number is on the CD you got with hardware

    an interesting thing this modem when turned on assigns 192.168.1.1 as the default gateway address
    it's a router ..........
    might be called a modem, but it has a box full of tricks of its own

    I think that you have a point there Foxy~.

    I would expect the "account setup" to be on a CD supplied by the ISP, otherwise how can the connection be authenticated account wise?

    Well, that's the way BT work.

    If I click on the BT icon on my desktop, it brings up the user and password entry menu for my ADSL account.

    aoboyz,

    It all depends how your ADSL provider works. I would expect them to supply a setup disk, and have a copy of the setup program on their support site.

    I don't know how things are where you live, but over here you DO need a telephone number. Your telephone number, as you can only access the account from your telephone line. This is one of the things that the ISP installation disk sets up.

    My 56.6 dial-up is different, as I can access my account from anywhere. It is "pay as you go" so the more I use it the more money the ISP makes, so they don't care.

    I suggest you contact your ADSL provider for details of your local service and how to set it up. I doubt if anyone here can help you, as there are so many possible variations.

    aoboyz,

    I work as tech support for an Dialup & xDSL ISP. I also wanted to confirm nihil's statement that the DSL line uses a phone number 99% of the time.

    A small amount of our DSL customers access DSL via Unbundled Loop (UBL). Instead of having the DSL bound to a telephone number, an account may be bound to a UBL which is a strange looking number with 3 octets (xx.xxxx.xxxx something like that) unlike an ip or phone number. The chances your DSL uses UBL instead of a phone # is more likely only if your service was purchased a decade ago.

    Most of the time, DSL accounts require user/pass authentication (PPPoE/PPPoA/UBL). WinXP/Vista & Mac OSX can do PPPoE authentication without any software from the ISP - it only needs a bridged DSL modem (though we sell some PPPoE modem/routers that don't require pc setup). PPPoA/UBL authenticate w/o any pc setup but our long-time DSL customers setup this way use expensive Cisco 677 modem/router dinosaurs. Luckily, expensive and less effiencient PPPoA/UBL is being phased out in favor of PPPoE.

    New DSL service be installed on the home phone number and the analog voice/digital DSL will play nice together on the same line. The old ways of DSL use to require getting a dedicated DSL line installed - some of our customers are setup with a dedicated line from the old days and it's more expensive than current share-the-line setup.

    I hope my insight on DSL will help you better understand the technology that connects you to the internet.
