Technician Dr. DSL: ADSL2 Modem Diagnostics Software for Field Testing

Overview While much of the focus on ADSL2 and ADSL2+ has been on their extended reach and increased data rates, these standards include impressive physical layer diagnostics designed to qualify customers for new services, troubleshoot failures and monitor ongoing performance. ADSL2 and ADSL2+ modems will likely become an efficient method of inexpensively equipping technicians with physical layer test functionality for resolving troubles and testing if and how a line can be conditioned to reliably support service.
