Operating System(back)Please familiarize yourself with the site posting rules: Posting Rules Limit discussions to issues dealing with Qwest DSL service.  got feedback?by adsldude Most Cable modems just bridge/convert your Ethernet (100baseT) into modulated Coaxial signaling. They have no "smarts". Therefore, for either the "protection of a NAT firewall" or to "share the broadband connection" with other computers Cable subscribers will insert a "router" in between the modem and thier computer(s). Most ADSL modems, on the other hand have router functionality built right into the modem. Some have more "robust" router functionality than others, but generally they all to have at least a DHCP server and a NAT firewall. Note: this means that the public IP number will be consumed by the Modem under most configurations and all devices inside the network will get a private IP number. Since an ADSL modem already has a DHCP server and a NAT firewall, you don't need to have a separate router. If there is an insufficient number of ethernet ports on the modem, all you need is a hub or a switch to give you more ports. If your ADSL modem doesn't support wireless connections, add a wireless AP. If the router functions of the ADSL modem is insufficient for your network, you may want to continue to use the separate external router. The first caveat is that all DHCP servers being used will have to be configured to function on different network segments. See your documentation for more details. Since your traffic is then being routed through 2 NAT firewalls, you may want to consider doing one of the following adjustments to your network. Option #1: Do nothing. Your traffic will have to traverse two separate NAT firewalls (one in the router and one in the modem.) Not a problem, but then whenever you want to forward a port, you will have to forward that port on both the router and the modem. Option #2: Put the Router in the modem's DMZ. You'll still be doing double NAT and the external IP will still be consumed by the modem, but when forwarding ports, you'll just have to change the modem. see: »US West/Qwest DSL »How Do I Put A Router In My 701g's DMZ? Option #3: Put the modem in bridging mode. (not supported or even available in all areas) see: »US West/Qwest DSL »How Do I Connect My 701 In Bridged Mode? Option #4: use a half-bridging or DMZ+ capable modem. Note that the Qwest supported 2 wire modem does support this feature. See: »DHCP Spoofing / Half Bridging

 : »Re: F2 ConditioningA normal phone line to your home is comprised normally of 2 parts; an F1 is the main feed cable from the central office to a CrossBox. It is a direct shot. The F2 is from that crossbox where it spider webs in different directions to the actual pedestal or telephone pole that is going to connect to your house. There are also 2 other options. If the central office is a fiber or T1's feeding a Pair Gain unit which multiplexes up to 24 numbers per T1 line, than can also be the F1, with the F2 going from the Pair Gain to the crossbox, and then an F3 from the crossbox to the pole or pedestal near your house. There's also some that have a direct connect from the central office to a pole or pedestal near their house. In that case they only have an F1. Anyway, when they say they are conditioning the cable, it doesn't really matter if they say F1, F2, or F3. The conditioning is still the same. They are either taking load coils out (Cleans up a pair of wires because of extremely long distances. Gets rid of noise from inductance and AC); removing bridge taps (When the same cable pair goes to more than 1 pole or pedestal so it's available in more than one location so when it's not used in one place, it can be used some place else); repairing a cable that is on the brink of failing; or re-routing pairs and dedicating them to get the most direct shot without having the bridge tap issue I just mentioned. Assuming that there isn't an F3 in the case of a pair gain, a normal F2 conditioning is taking out load coils and/or bridge taps.
got feedback?by AthlGrond ]: »Re: Goodby Qwest!Excluding web/mail servers and the like, a DSL connection consists of the following path elements (applies specifically for non-FTTN): 1. Local loop- copper between the DSLAM and the customer modem. 2. DSLAM trunk- ATM T1s, DS3, or OC3. 3. ATM cloud- the ATM switches and internodal trunks between switches. 4. ISP trunk- the ATM trunk (T1s, DS3 or higher for 3M and above customer speeds) that feeds the ISP gateway router. Elements 1-3 are the same (depending on the ATM cloud path) regardless whether Qwest or a 3rd party ISP like Xmission are providing IP services. 4 will be different, as it's a dedicated trunk to the ISP router. So while much of the network is the same, it's not completely the same physical network. [Added by [ christcorp ]: Let me add one caveat. Some ISP's offering DSL do have their own DSLAMS in town. As such, #1; their local loop many times would be a dry pair of wires from their home/business to their ISP's DSLAM. In this case, other than a cross connect of copper, not of Qwest's DSL path is shared with the customer or his/her ISP. later... mike...]

2009-11-22 12:24:59 by AthlGrond The service includes a digital TV service, allowing up to three TVs. The VDSL service is administered by a different division from the ADSL service, so you need to contact the VDSL department directly to check on availability. The website is at »www.qwest.com/vdsl/ . To qualify, you must be within 4000 feet of a central office or a remote terminal. For hardware, Qwest uses the Motorola (formerly Next Level Communications) RG2200. This supports TV and data. For data only, they use a Motorola EtherSet. The VDSL service only offers Qwest.Net as the ISP. You cannot choose your own ISP. Qwest also offers a TV/data service in Omaha, Nebraska, but this is over coax cable TV, not DSL. Note on port blocking and server hosting: Qwest now says "The VDSL network will now offer the same level of service as Qwest DSL network." See: »Qwest VDSL vs Cox and »www.qwestchoice.com/newphx.html#whatsnew This should translate to no ports being blocked, and servers being allowed (provided that they conform to the AUP). ***NOTE*** Just slipped under my door: "As of September 2008, Qwest is no longer signing up new customers for its Choice service, instead they will be selling DirecTV and ADSL service. No date for shutting off existing Choice customers has been announced, but it will probably be sometime in 2009." I don't see confirmation from Qwest yet, but this does sound logical. Would anyone with information about this directly from Qwest please submit a reference link? Thanks!
got feedback?As of September 2008, Qwest is no longer signing up new customers for its Choice service, instead selling DirecTV and ADSL service. No date for shutting off existing customers has been announced, but it will probably be sometime in 2009. 2008-09-12 15:12:20 (alanhdsl by alanhdsl The down-side of interleaving is that it increases latency (ping). This is because a single packet is spread out over several packets before it can be fully sent or fully received. Interleaving may be necessary to ensure a stable and reliable connection in cases where the line quality is poor. You can tell if interleaving is active on your line by measuring the first hop ping. If it is under 20ms, interleaving is disabled. If it is above 35ms, interleaving is enabled. The DSLAM (central office equipment) has interleaving set, and this cannot be changed remotely by the end user. Qwest turns on interleaving for all ADSL customers. The interleave value is 16ms in each direction which adds 32ms total to first hop latency. This is system wide and to date there are no reports that any Qwest ADSL users have successfully convinced Qwest to turn off interleaving and run Fastpath. [Correction: There are isolated reports of people managing to get it turned off, however this appears to violate stated company policy.] Also see: »More On FEC and Interleave
got feedback?by adsldude A: Typically online gamming is most affected by latency rather than bandwidth, and there are a few things that affect the latency of your Qwest DSL connection. First Qwest uses interleaving (an error correction scheme) on all ADSL circuits (see here for more information on interleaving). This interleaving adds about 32ms of latency to your first hop. Only Qwest can adjust the interleaving, and they will not do so under any circumstances. The only way you can get rid of latency is to switch to a company that does not use Qwest’s CO equipment (which may not be possible in all areas), or to switch to cable internet (which also may not be available or desirable). Second your internet service provider (ISP) may have poor routing. Some ISPs are better than others for faster routing of traffic. You can try switching ISPs to see if you can get some better routing and lower latency. (see here for more information on ISPs available in your area) You can check the Broadband Reports reviews of ISPs to get an idea of how good they are.

Voila! Enter those new PPP credentials in the modem. 2 (Pretty good) - If you don't have welcome letter with you (since you have internet access right now!) and/or internet access where the letter is, there is a temporary signon on the "quick connect" software CD. Pop it in and browse to the manual install folder and run start.htm -- it'll get you going without you having to actually install the Quick Connect software. 3 (Acceptable) - If you either lost the "Welcome" letter or are too lazy to do one of the above options, you can call the DSL service call center and request your PPP credentials from one of the reps. 4 (Non-geeks only) - If you have no clue how to access the modem to enter your credentials and "just want it to work" then you can pop in the "Quick Connect" CD, burden your system by installing the software, and follow the instructions to enter your "Welcome Letter" information into the modem.

ISPs got feedback?by adsldude Essentially you are trying to get the Qwest (ISP) equipment to think you are a new user that it has not seen before by changing your authentication (log in) credentials, this will cause it to give you a new IP address. If you are using PPPoA you will make the authentication change in your modem, if you are using PPPoE you will make the authentication change in your router or your PC if you don't use a router.

got feedback?by adsldude Enjoy! got feedback?by Doctor Olds The problem with this is that you can't set up any kind of server. Peer to peer software such as Bit Tornado will always say that you are firewalled. This can be especially confusing if you use a NAT router between the Arescom and your PCs, for example if you set up a LAN in your house. I fought the LAN router for hours, trying to figure out what was wrong, when the problem was not with the LAN router at all, but was with the modem/router. So, how to configure the Arescom DSL modem/router when it can't be done? Answer: Hack into the thing and set it up the way that you want to. Details on the hack are here: »MSN Forum FAQ »How do I change the firewall settings, or any other advanced config. settings? These modems are well out of their warranty date so hack away (keep in mind you might fry it).
got feedback?by CrystalOnion : »Intermittent Disconnects and Lag, Qwest DSLThese are the stats I'd mainly look at: Speed (down/up): 1536 / 736 Kbps Near End CRC Errors (I/F): 2/0 Far End CRC Errors (I/F): 2/0 Near End RS FEC (I/F): 1224/0 Far End RS FEC (I/F): 2499775/0 SNR Margin (Downstream/Upstream): 6/6 Attenuation (Downstream/Upstream): 63/63 The speed tells you what you're trained at. That he's trained at under the maximum rate of 896 or 1024k says that the modem and DSLAM couldn't connect at a higher rate without the SNR dropping below 6dB. Errors- near end are those recieved at the modem, far end are those reported by the DSLAM. CRC's are uncorrectable errors, FEC errors are those corrected through interleaving. You'll always see at least a couple of errors, but if they increment heavily, it's likely going to be a problem. SNR margin- Signal to Noise Ratio margin. This is the SNR above the minimum SNR needed to sustain a certain speed. If it takes 20dB to connect at a given speed, and the actual SNR is 26dB, you will have an SNR margin of 6dB. 6dB is the minimum SNR margin that Qwest DSLAMs are configured to train at. 6dB is marginal but not necessarily a deal-killer. Plenty of people are trained at 6dB with nothing more than some errors that don't cause noticable problems. For others, they will have problems at 6dB. The guideline I'd go by: 6-7dB Marginal. Likely to have errors to some degree, may be an indication of a line problem (house wiring or Qwest cable), but might just mean the signal is weak due to distance from the DSLAM. Attenuation- In basic terms, it represents the amount of signal resistance on your line between the modem and DSLAM. The higher the attenuation is, the lower the SNR margin will typically be. Longer/thinner cable is the most common reason for increased attenuation, with line trouble a distant second. Once you get into the high 50's or low 60's, you're approaching the limit.
got feedback?by AthlGrond : »Re: Intermittent Disconnects and Lag, Qwest DSLIf your dsl drops every time the phone rings, there are usually 2 things that cause this. 1) a bad filter in your house. If a filter is bad or missing it can cause the dsl to drop either when the phone rings or if someone picks up the phone with the bad filter. 2) The other reason could be on Qwest's side. It's called a POTS splitter. You have one of these if you have BOTH phone and DSL. It's what sort of combines the 2 together. There are a number of problems that can occur with a bad pots splitter. i.e. DSL works - phone totally dead, Phone works-dsl - totally dead, disconnects, etc... I suggest that you hook up the dsl modem by itself. DISCONNECT ALL PHONES IN THE HOUSE. Do NOT have anything connected at all except the dsl modem. No filters, phones, directv, digital cable, or anything else in a phone jack. Then when you are up and surfing, take your cell phone and call your house. Technically it should just ring and ring. Unless you have voice mail in which case it will go to voice mail after so many rings. Anyway, see if when the line is ringing in your cell phone if it is dropping you off. If it DOESN'T, then it's probably one of the filters, jacks, or wiring. If it still disconnects, it's probably the POTS splitter with Qwest. There is a slim chance that it's the modem so if you have a friend with DSL you can borrow their modem and try surfing while calling in also.
got feedback?by AthlGrond in this thread:»difference between modes what's the diff between, Multimode, T1.413, G.DMT, and G.Lite? And which one should I use? Multimode basically says that you are OK with any of T1.413, G.DMT or G.Lite, so the DSLAM can choose whatever it prefers. If you choose one of the others then the DSLAM will refuse the connection if it doesn't support that mode. T1.413 and G.DMT are very similar, and support up to the full ADSL speeds of 8M/1M. G.Lite tops out around 4M, at least with my experimentation. So, yes G.Lite shouldn't be used if your DSLAM supports the other protocols. I'd stick with Multimode, since the DSLAM should be configured to use the best mode that it is able to use.

The 678 will work with all of their regular ADSL offerings (the 7Mbps/1.0Mb and slower services). However since the 678 does not support ADSL2+ it will not work with the more recent (and rarer) 12Mbps and 20Mbps Qwest offerings. Regardless of what some Qwest representatives may say, the modem WILL work (with the 7Mbps and lower offerings). Any confusion about this is likely due to the fact that the 678 is no-longer sold or officially supported by Qwest. A note regarding PPPoE and PPPoA and the Cisco 678 modem: Qwest has switched to using PPPoE in many areas, and the 678 does not internally support PPPoE authentication. If you live in one of the areas where PPPoE is the only authentication available and you want to use the 678, you will need to put the modem into bridged mode and use a device (PC or router for example) to do the PPPoE authentication.

The Cisco 67x only uses three wires for communication, depending on the colored wires inside the adapter: Flat Standard: YELLOW->2, GREEN->3, RED->5 568B Standard: GREEN->2, WHITE/BLUE->3, BLUE->5 Cut or individually tape up the unused wires in the RJ-45 to DB-9 adapter so they don't touch or short out. Plug the adapter into a serial port on your computer, and the RJ-45 cable between the adapter and the management port of your 67x. The Cisco 67x DSL router uses a different management cable than the Console cable used on other Cisco products (2500, etc.), so if you find one for sale or on an auction, be sure it is specifically for the Cisco 67x.

SoftwareNo. The Qwest software is not needed to access the internet, it is provided as an aid for trouble shooting problems should they arise (and last report was that it only ran under Windows, so you would not be able to load it if you are using a different operating system). got feedback?by AthlGrond : »Qwest with Windows live - setting up ThunderbirdSettings used for Qwest/Windows Live with Thunderbird (as of 01/19/2008): Incoming User name = xxx@q.com Server name: pop3.live.com port 995 Use secure connection: SSL do NOT check "use secure authentication" OUTGOING Server name: smtp.live.com port 25 User name = xxx@q.com Use secure connection: TLS if available Additional information provided by NormanS (2/1/2008):Incoming ports for POP3 email protocol: port 110 (insecure) port 995 (SSL) Incoming ports for IMAP4 protocol: port 143 (insecure) port 993 (SSL) Outgoing ports for SMTP message submission: port 25 (security optional, depending upon server configuration; originally intended for message transfer.) port 465 (SSL) port 587 (TLS, if supported by the message submission server.)

got feedback?by AthlGrond »www.qwest.com/internethelp/opsys···ml#osten got feedback?The Qwest Mac info is severely outdated. They list 10.3 as the latest they have info on. Apple is now up to 10.5.1, 5.2 by mid January. 2007-12-24 00:57:47 Yes. Today I setup my Qwest DSL modem to work with my MacBook. Worked fine with both an ethernet and wireless signal. However, I have a "speed" problem at my home. I just had DSL installed about 2 days ago and on average, I'm only getting 1Mbps service although I'm supposed to have 16Mbps service. Qwest is coming out tomorrow to check my lines and if they don't get me up to near what I'm paying for, I'll continue my cable service. The only reason for the switch to DSL was to get the triple play offer (landline, internet and DirecTV). Right now it looks like I'll be downgrading to DirecTV and landline service only. 2009-03-01 00:32:14 by AthlGrond | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
