Well here it is! Please let me know your results!
How to connect to Ameritech DSL on windows XP using the Efficient SpeedStream 4060
Download drivers 3.4.1 from »support.efficient.com/drivers/dr···-033.exe
Extract them and run setup.
:: Setup Wizard::
Hit no on modem pictures number 1.
On the next set hit next.
It will copy files, etc. Just let it do its job.
When told so hook all the wires into the back of the modem. Then hook it into the phone jack. Plug in the power. Lastly hook the usb cord into the pc. When you do this alloy of new hardware found messages will appear. Ignore everything and just let it do its stuff.
Your modem light should turn green!
Click Finish
::Wizard Exit::
::Auto Config wizard appears::
Just hit Cancel asap
::Wizard Closes::
Now go to Start-Control Panel – Network connections – Create a new account
::Wizard::
Hit Next – connect to the internet – setup manually – connect using broadband connection that requires a username and password. Name is Ameritech. Enter your user name and password. Remember after your using name to put @ameritech.net I turned off the firewall. Hit Finish
::Exits wizard::
Click on ATM Connections – Right click and hit properties – Click on Efficient Networks RFC 1483 Intermediate Driver – Hit properties – set the vci to 35 – hit ok then close
Here is the MOST IMPORTANT PART. Local area connection 4 in network connections will say a cable is unplugged. To fix this right click on it and hit disable. Now after that right click on it again and hit enable. Select your Ameritech DSL account and hit connect! Happy surfing! BTW I am connected at 811.4 Kbps.. Is that good? |

| They don't need that for the 4060. All they need to do is follow the instructions from my post. I have had it work on both of my pcs with the 4060 and 4 other people have claimed it worked. So far my way has worked 100% |

| Yeah, I have an Iomega Predator but I haven't tried it yet. *Shutter* Guess that's next on the ol' list. I already discovered my HP scanner is out but so far nothing I can't live without for a month or two.

Ogrt! I tried everything you said step by step, but when I get to the part where I change the vpi setting, it asks me to restart. Whether I do or don't, the VPI AND VCI both wind up blank again. Then I tried the last step but no luck. Help! Do you have any ideas? I have tried to install before, many times with no luck...is there any way to remove a history of everything I've tried (in the registry?) Or change this VCI number in the registry? I am clueless! |

| Ramsestut, when you install the drivers Ogrt lists, do you get the auto config wizard afterwards for them (not the install wizard but the one after they've been successfully installed)? When I installed them, I didn't use the wizard for auto config and it worked until I rebooted.
I couldn't figure out why my connection failed until I let it do the auto config, then it work flawlessly. If the wizard keeps popping up, let it config your connection and see if that does the trick.

You will have to reinstall most CD burning software once after you "upgrade" to Windows XP |

Hey Ogrt. I tried seeing if the same thing you did for Ameritech would work for my Bellsouth Fast Access Account. I think technically it should have worked. The only thing that didn't work I guess is that after I plugged in the wires for the modem, the light never turned green. It stayed orange. I continued thinking that maybe it would work after a reboot. But it didn't.
Also the auto config wizard never came up after the setup wizard finished. I created a new account, but when I right clicked the ATM connection and went into properties, there didn't seem to be anything that said Efficient Networks RFC 1483 Intermediate Driver. Plus i couldn't disable or enable the ATM. What did I do wrong. I'm getting annoyed at bellsouth for not supporting XP!!! |

Royal Oak, MI | One problem! Some people's VPIs and VCPs are different...Mine is 0*105, not 35. This is the exact same trick to get the 3060 working on 2k, just modified for XP. |

HELP! I'm having the same problem ramsestut is having with changing the Vci value. After changing it, it asks me to reboot, and after rebooting it stays blank. I've been attempting to connect for over a week now with no luck. The modem light is green, and I followed all of Orgt48's steps exactly, but running into the Vci roadblock. PLEASE does anyone have a solution??? |

My 4060 works fine with Verizon but after every reboot the 4th connection always says cable unplugged. I can still connect even with the message. If I disable and then enable it all is fine. Any idea why connection 4 is "unplugged" after reboot? |
