BT Voyager 105 USB ADSL modem? (EciAdsl?)

[senshisteph]

Hi, here's exactly what I did. You can copy the commands I used and
paste them into terminal by pressing ctrl+shift+v (or edit=>paste) all
except for the first one where you need to add in the path.



The download page is here:
http://eciadsl.flashtux.org/download/nortek-2021/ 



you need to download the .deb package from that page and the synch_bin
file from the main download page.



Open a terminal and type 

dpkg -i /path/eciadsl-usermode_0.10_i386.deb 

(replace the word 'path' with where the file is, e.g. /media/usb0/ ) to
install the package.



when the package has been installed, type

eciadsl-config-tk or

eciadsl-config-text



Enter the following information:



user name: firstname.lastname at btbroadband.com 

password: x (a single letter 'x') 

provider: 51 (British Telecom) 

DNS1: (enter to accept default) 

DNS2: (enter to accept default) 

VPI: 0 

VCI: 38 

modem type: 11 (BT Voyager 105) 

VID1: 1690

PID1: 0215

VID2: 1690

PID2: 0215 

modem chipset: GS7470 

USB ALT interface for SYNCH: accept default 

USB ALT interface for PPPOECI: accept default 

synch file: /etc/eciadsl/gs7470_synch03.bin 

PPP mode: accept default 

is DHCP used? no 

is a static ip used? no 



Finally, unpack the synch_bin files into /etc/eciadsl - I am not sure
how to do it with archive manager due to permissions, so I ended up
unpacking the .tar.bz2 archive in my home folder then repacking it into
a .tar.gz (after trying several different ways) - I then opened a root
terminal and typed



cd /etc/eciadsl && tar xvzf /home/eciadsl-synch_bin.tar.gz



You should now be good to go. Reset your modem just to be sure by
disconnecting it for 20 seconds, then plug it back in and in a terminal
type 



sudo eciadsl-start

enter your Ubuntu password and hopefully it will connect just fine.



Hope this helps!!
