[speedtouch] Re: Speedtouch line going down under Linux
Hi Ed, A search through the WindowsXP directory brought to light that the very old file alcaudsl.sys is still there. Not a suprise as I used the installation disk from 06-06-2002 to load the speedtouch driver under WindowsXP after I had installed WindowsXP. So I suppose it is the one used by WindowsXp. file: /Windows/C/WINDOWS/system32/drivers/alcaudsl.sys md5sum: 8080b5ea17a763bbce6c92bbc6ceefe8 The firmware files that I have been using for years for all Linux distributions are: /lib/firmware/speedtch-1.bin md5sum: be58aef97d8435dce070c96574c06564 /lib/firmware/speedtch-2.bin md5sum: 4dc23adb72007919f30d50ebcf222f8a I tried to find the .inf files that contain the words you mentioned using search commands like: grep -rsiH modem /Windows/C/WINDOWS/* | grep -rsi option grep -rsiH DSL /Windows/C/WINDOWS/* | grep -rsi Max but none had anything the like. try searching for alcaudsl. alcaudsl is found in file /Windows/C/WINDOWS/setupapi.log and /Windows/C/WINDOWS/inf/oem9.inf What file setupapi.log says is that it understands the driver program to be of 06-06-2002, what matches with the date of alcaudsl.sys and that it installs from section [alcaudsl.Install] in h:\windows\inf\oem9.inf. Looks as if alcaudsl.sys is the microcode that is loaded. I only find the files /Windows/C/WINDOWS/inf/oem8.inf /Windows/C/WINDOWS/inf/oem9.inf that contain words like speedtouch or alcatel. So, as a consequence, I do not find any parameter information. Suppose I boot into WindowsXP, is there some manner in which I can retrieve information about the parameters you mentioned? Not really. You can use a usb snooper to see what windows is sending to the modem, but that's not for the faint hearted. Do you see the message OAM not supported in dmesg output? No. It is not there. Would it be an idea to use the alcaudsl.sys microcode as suggested in the README file of the speedtouchconf project? Alternatively: can you tell me how to change parameters of the speedtch module using the modprobe command?

[speedtouch] Re: Speedtouch line going down under Linux
Hi Ed, pop up every 10 minutes. What is strange is that this behavior does not happen under WindowsXP. Distributions like OpenSuSE however suffer from this problem. Ubuntu 9.04 is even worse. Under Unbuntu, the modem is more busy with synchronizing than with serving my connection. perhaps the modem needs newer firmware to handle these speeds. Are you using the same firmware as with windows XP? It may also be that the modem needs to be initialized differently (all kinds of mysterious stuff happens at modem initialization time, and it's not clear what it is). In the windows .inf file you may find settings like BMaxDSL, ModemMode and ModemOption, perhaps not with exactly those names. These seem to be important parameters, and we managed to implement them as module parameters for the speedtch module. The default values are 8128, 11 and 0x10,0x00,0x00,0x00,0x20 respectively. Try changing these to the values you see in your .inf file. The values can be set using modprobe. Good luck, Duncan.

[speedtouch] Re: Speedtouch line going down under Linux
I had to switch to WindowsXP te maintain a normal connection. Under OpenSuSE the line is going down nearly every minute this evening. So far the advantages of xs4all with their upgrade that I never asked for... Ed Hi Duncan, Duncan, what about adding speed, signal strength, agreed ADSL standard and bins composition to the driver's procfs file? Unfortunately I don't know how to get anything except the speed. The speed is already reported to the ATM layer. I see. Lacking firmware documentation seems a common problem with these devices, isn't it? Bonsoir, Giampaolo Ciao, Duncan.

[speedtouch] Speedtouch line going down under Linux
My provider, xs4all in the Netherlands, has served me well for 8 years. Since last summer however, after they changed the properties of the connection (it was upgraded to 6112 kb/s down, 832 kb/s up) things got problematic. The first is that the synchronizing of my speedtouch 330 modem (the purple one) takes much longer now. Since the synchronizing takes place during boot time, that generally is not such a big problem. What is a problem is that, especially late at night, the modem goes down frequently. Message like: Oct 10 23:19:08 linux-31l4 kernel: ATM dev 0: DSL line goes down Oct 10 23:19:08 linux-31l4 kernel: ATM dev 0: ADSL line is down Oct 10 23:19:50 linux-31l4 kernel: ATM dev 0: DSL line goes up Oct 10 23:19:50 linux-31l4 kernel: ATM dev 0: ADSL line is up (6080 kb/s down | 832 kb/s up) pop up every 10 minutes. What is strange is that this behavior does not happen under WindowsXP. Distributions like OpenSuSE however suffer from this problem. Ubuntu 9.04 is even worse. Under Unbuntu, the modem is more busy with synchronizing than with serving my connection. Has anyone ever experienced this problem?

[speedtouch] Unable to connect speedtouch 330 to internet on Fedora 11
I have severe problems in getting the purple speedtouch 330 to establish an internet connection on Fedora 11. After installation of Fedora, I copy the files speedtch-1.bin and speedtch-2.bin to /lib/firmware. After plugging in the modem, the /var/log/messages shows it synchronizes: ATM dev 0: ADSL line is up (6112 kb/s down | 832 kb/s up) So far, so good. The problem is how to tell the system to add a DSL-connection with ppp over atm. I first try to use the tools that Fedora gives me: Preferences-Network Connections Here I can add a DSL, which asks me for a username, password and a service. What is a service? Authentication methods chap and pap are enabled The IP4 settings only let me choose between two methods for ppp0E and one 'manual' which aks me things I do not understand. My impression is that ppp over atm is unknown. I go no further along this path. Administration-Network gives me the possibility to add a new device, to choose from several device types, among which xSDL. If I choose that one, it wants me to install package rp-pppoe. Once again ppp over atm is unknown. I avoid this approach too. I decided to follow the instructions for speedtouch 330 installation for several distributions on sourceforge. These tell me to create the file ifcfg-ppp0 Of course I change the entries USER='usern...@isp' VPI=vpi-number VCI=vci-number to my personal settings I also create a file named secrets, once again changing the contents to my personal settings. I copy these files to other places using the commands: install -m400 ifcfg-ppp0 /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts install -m400 secrets /etc/ppp/chap-secrets install -m400 secrets /etc/ppp/pap-secrets Having done this, I reboot. The line goes up, but there is no connection. Not even a message that it is trying to authenticate. I would expect module pppoatm to be loaded, but it is not. I 'modprobe' this module it and it appears, together with some other modules: pppoatm 4528 0 ppp_generic23416 1 pppoatm slhc5200 1 ppp_generic atm41168 2 pppoatm,usbatm I disconnect and reconnect the modem. The line comes uo again but still no authentication after that, no even an effort to do so. Going to Adminstration-Network, I see that a device ppp0 now is there as type xSDL, though inactive. And the hardware is seen as an ethernet type with device 'pan0'. Things are certainly more easy with OpenSuSE and Mandriva.

[speedtouch] Re: [OT] Unable to connect speedtouch 330 to internet on Fedora 11
I have severe problems in getting the purple speedtouch 330 to establish an internet connection on Fedora 11. After installation of Fedora, I copy the files speedtch-1.bin and speedtch-2.bin to /lib/firmware. After plugging in the modem, the /var/log/messages shows it synchronizes: ATM dev 0: ADSL line is up (6112 kb/s down | 832 kb/s up) Hi Ed, please note this is a bit OT here because your ADSL connection seems to work. You simply can't get pppd to work with it. Anyway, the problem is probably in the pppd invocation. In one of my nodes, I have the following: /usr/sbin/pppd unit 0 user x remotename ppp0 linkname ppp0 defaultroute persist maxfail 0 holdoff 30 ipcp-accept-remote lcp-echo-interval 12 lcp-echo-failure 5 plugin passwordfd.so passwordfd 3 connect true plugin pppoatm.so vc-encaps 0.8.35 Pppoatm works fine there. Please note pppd can't connect via an ADSL modem directly: it has to use the pppoatm plugin, which generally is brought by the pppd package itself. The runstring with which pppd is invoked should show a 'plugin pppoatm.so ENCAP [ITF.]VPI.VCI' somewhere, otherwise you are not using the pppoatm plugin... Hello Giampaolo, Thank you for the information. Since my file /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-ppp0 contains the line LINUX_PLUGIN=pppoatm.so, the problem is that the file is simply not invoked? It explains why the module pppoatm is never loaded automatically. Where does one invoke the line /usr/sbin/pppd unit 0 user x remotename ppp0 linkname ppp0 defaultroute persist maxfail 0 holdoff 30 ipcp-accept-remote lcp-echo-interval 12 lcp-echo-failure 5 plugin passwordfd.so passwordfd 3 connect true plugin pppoatm.so vc-encaps 0.8.35 ? Check that this is your case. ...omissis... Things are certainly more easy with OpenSuSE and Mandriva. Thank you for the information: I didn't know OpenSuSE and Mandriva did support pppoatm. You mean via gui, right? Giampaolo OpenSuSE and Mandriva do not fully support the speedtouch 330. The problem is the firmware, which is not loaded automatically (though Mandriva Ppowerpack seems to see to this too). But once the ADSL line is up, the configuration via a gui is very straightforward under both OpenSuse and Mandriva. Now I must admit that this is my first try wth Fedora and the installation DVD seems to be a bit buggy. My experiences with Ubuntu are not all to pleasant too. In fact someone had to write explicitly an usbadslmodemmanager package to get things going there.

[speedtouch] Re: Feisty
Hi Ed and Paul
Paul: thanks for the link to the UBuntu help site. The set up procedure
looks very similar, so I will have to go through them carefully and
compare.
Ed: I have no file /etc/ppp/peers/usbadslmodem, so this is something else
I
need to look into, thank you.
Whilst switching between desktops, I did notice the message come up on
booting stating The Speedtouch Firmware did not load. This seems to be
a
vital clue; does anyone have any suggestions ?
If the firmware doesn't load, no connection can be made at all.
Are the files speedtch-1.bin and speedtch-2.bin present in /lib/firmware?
This is how my /lib/firmware looks:
drwxr-xr-x 4 root root 4096 2007-04-15 13:53 2.6.20-15-generic
drwxr-xr-x 4 root root 4096 2007-09-24 14:00 2.6.20-16-generic

Hi Ed
Thanks for your reply. Basically, I am not really that au fait with
Linux.
I dabbled a while ago with Dapper Drake and got the Speedtouch modem
working
after some help from this forum.
I've just started out again with Feisty. I have followed all of the
instructions on the site
http://www.linux-usb.org/SpeedTouch/ubuntu/index.html, but it isn't
working.
I'm sure it's something very simple I have to modify, as I did
before,
but
my lack of experience in using Linux doesn't help!
Any suggestios will be gratefully received!
Regards.
Roger.

[speedtouch] Re: Firmware Speedtouch 330 not loaded
Hello David, Funny things happened. Since the OpenSuSE 10.2 DVD that I got from a magazine and with which (as said) I could not get the firmware loaded at boot time or at hotplug, I downloaded an openSuSE 10.2 iso from http://software.opensuse.org/. That downloaded version was installed on my laptop, I copied the firmware speedtch-1.bin and speedtch-2.bin in /lib/firmware and the ADSL line went up! When looking at the directory tree, I found that in directory /lib/modules/2.6.18.2-34-default/kernel/drivers/usb the subdirectory atm is present, where it was not present when I tried the magazine DVD. That same magazine DVD however, when installed on my desktop, succeeded in getting the ADSL line up. As far as I can guess, the magazine DVD, when installed on my laptop, gets confused a bit. Ed Hi there, Go to the following site. http://www.linux-usb.org/SpeedTouch/suse/index.html It gives you a step by step guide to get st330 working on 10.2. It works its what I use on my OpenSuSE 10.2 Regards, Davids C. Findlay On 29/07/07, Ed Vaessen [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I installed OpenSuSE 10.2 on an Athec LT51 laptop. It seems that no script is activated to load the firmware on the Speedtouch 330 modem when it is plugged in. What I did was simply installing OpenSuSE 10.2 and after installation copying the binaries speedtch-1.bin and speetch-2.bin in /lib/firmware. On boot or on hotplugging, the modem is recognized, but after that no further action is taken by the system. Here the output from /var/log/messages.

[speedtouch] Firmware Speedtouch 330 not loaded
I installed OpenSuSE 10.2 on an Athec LT51 laptop. It seems that no script is activated to load the firmware on the Speedtouch 330 modem when it is plugged in. What I did was simply installing OpenSuSE 10.2 and after installation copying the binaries speedtch-1.bin and speetch-2.bin in /lib/firmware. On boot or on hotplugging, the modem is recognized, but after that no further action is taken by the system. Here the output from /var/log/messages.

[speedtouch] No connection after some time. Pulling the plug works.
My SuSE 10.0 PC is running a program for several days now. Until yesterday, I could succesfully connect to the internet. I returned this evening and wanted to check out my e-mail. The Kinternet tool was clicked on and it tried to make the connection. But it did not succeed. So I checked /var/log/messages: Mar 18 00:56:34 AtemboPC SuSEfirewall2: Firewall rules successfully set Mar 18 00:56:34 AtemboPC modify_resolvconf: Service smpppd-ifcfg modified /etc/resolv.conf.
