ADSL Connecting
The 965DSP displays this screen while it is 
connecting with the DSLAM.
Status messages about the connection process are 
displayed as they occur.
The hourglass indicator at the bottom of the screen 
is displayed as the connection process proceeds. 
Connection states include:
Starting:   The ADSL modem in the 965DSP is 
initializing
Searching:   The ADSL modem in the 965DSP is 
attempting to locate the DSLAM
Linking:   A DSLAM is present, and the 
965DSP is synchronizing with it
Connected:   The 965DSP has completed the 
connection process and has achieved 
‘showtime’
Failed:  The modem connection process failed
When the modems have connected, the 965DSP 
proceeds directly to a connection status screen. 
 
If a connection failure occurs, a warning screen 
displaying a text or numeric message indicating the 
failure mode is displayed.
ADSL Pass/Fail
When the connection process is complete, the 
965DSP displays the Pass/Fail screen 
only if 
Thresholds are enabled (see ADSL Setup).
