G.992.3 Annex L Reach Extended ADSL (RE-ADSL)2

ADSL2+ G.dmt2+ (ITU G.992.5)3

ISDN in overlay:

G.handshake (ITU-T G.994.1)

ITU-T Annex B (ITU-T G.992.1 Annex B)

ETSI ETR 006

U-R2 (DTAG 1 TR 112 U-R2)

ADSL2 G.dmt2 (ITU-T G.992.3) and G.lite2 (G.992.4)

G.992.3 Annex L Reach Extended ADSL (RE-ADSL)

ADSL2+ G.dmt2+ (ITU G.992.5)

Supports:

ADSL standards blocking

ADSL spectral shaping (versus widely deployed Alcatel DSLAM ADSL line cards)

ADSL/POTS Compressed ATM

CPE identification over the ADSL EOC (Embedded Operations Channel) protocol (EOC in ITU-T G.992.2)

Throughput performance:

Downstream bandwidth of up to 8Mb/s (ADSL), 15Mb/s (ADSL2, RE-ADSL) or 24Mb/s (ADSL2+) downstream

Upstream bandwidth of up to 832kb/s (ADSL/POTS), 640kb/s upstream (ADSL/ISDN) or 1.5Mb/s (ADSL2/RE-ADSL/ADSL2+) upstream

Hardware dying gasp

1. ADSL2, being the successor of the well-known ADSL standard, adds new features and functionality targeted at improving performance and interoperability, and adds support for new applications, services and deployment scenarios. Among the changes are improvements in data rate and reach performance, rate adaption, diagnostics and stand-by mode.

2. RE-ADSL is an extension to G.992.3 ADSL2 that allows to significantly extend the reach of throughput capabilities.

3. ADSL2+ is an extension to the ADSL2 standard that goes even further in offering optimal broadbanding; it nearly doubles the maximum ADSL downstream data rates to up to 24Mb/s.

Firmware v6.104versus v6.105

Following specific improvements have been implemented in the latest Release R6.1 firmware v6.105 versus its predecessor version 6.104:

New R6.1 Flexiport extention fixes and new R6.1 DHCP client fixesThe checking on the presence of the vendor class and user class identifier option was not correct causing the modem crash in a Flexiport setup.The reason was that the domain name option was not present in the DHCP messages send to the client, as a consequence the ST DHCP client refuses to proceed. Problem was caused by registering the domain name as a request option on the wan DHCP client causing the default domain name to be reset in the DNS server to an empty string. Domain name option will not be anymore requested by the WAN DHCP client.

New R6.1 DHCP / TFTP / TR-69 scenario fixesAfter ACS server RST ST's https request (sometimes one RST will cause CLI frozen, sometimes several RSTs will appear), first ST's CLI will no response but can reply ping request, then after 1 or two minutes it reboot automatically.

Chapter 3Solved Technical Issues and Added Features

3.1 Solved Technical Issues in Previous Releases

Overview The following issues were resolved in R5.4.0:

Local IP Issue

Unnecessary PPP Connect

Incorrect Reset Behaviour

Wireless LED Turns Off

Cannot Create PPTP Tunnel in Windows XP

SpeedTouch™ Reboots On Non-English Language Pack

Local IP Issue IDescription:

For PPP, the system does not handle a configuration with a fixed configured local IP address that differs from the IP address dynamically assigned by the BRAS/RADIUS server.

Solution:

The issue has been resolved.

Unnecessary PPPConnect

Description:

When the user name and password for PPP are not configured (i.e. left blank), the system still tries to establish a PPP connection.

Solution:

The issue has been resolved; The system now refuses to initiate a PPP connection when the user name and password are left blank. This reduces the load of failed PPP connections on the BRAS/RADIUS server.

Incorrect ResetBehaviour

Description:

Hardware and Web GUI reset showed different behaviour.

Solution:

The reset behaviour was lined up and corrected for both reset options. If user.ini is not present, all configuration files on all paths are deleted. If user.ini is present, only user.ini is deleted.

Wireless LED Turns Off Description:

Wireless LED stays OFF after running a template and rebooting.

Solution:

The issue has been resolved.

Overview The following issues were solved for the current release:

Line out of synch due to Impulsive Noise

Performance issue

Double ACK messages

Line out of synch due toImpulsive Noise

Description:

A High CRC and FEC error on the SpeedTouch™585 and SpeedTouch™680, due to Impulsive Noise caused the line to go temporarily out of synch, which in turn caused the PPP connection to go down.

4.2 Technical Issues

Overview The following issues are known for the current release:

Unreadable Charactersin Home Install Wizard

on MAC OS

Description:

On the Home Install Wizard in MAC OSX, accented characters are shown as garbage or not shown.

Workaround:

Avoid the use of these characters. The issue will be fixed in STHIW R2.0 for MAC.

Percentage Sign notAccepted in Passwords

and User Names

Description:

Percentage (%) sign not accepted in user names and passwords.

Workaround:

Uptime Not CorrectlyDisplayed

Description:

The Uptime for the IPoA connection is not correctly displayed on the IP Internet details screen.

Workaround:

IPoA is a passive WAN interface type and its uptime has no real significance, since the line will go down only when manually brought down. For static IP addresses, uptime may be ignored. Uptime for dynamic IP addresses is correctly displayed.

The configured order of requested options in the DHCP client is important because it determines the processing sequence in the DHCP client when the ack is received.

Solution:

Reset your SpeedTouch™ to defaults and reconfigure.
