ACCESSING CSA

The User Interface to the ADSL Modem is provided by the Control and Status Application (CSA). You can access the CSA by double-clicking on the CSA icon in the System Tray, located near the clock on the task bar. The icon, which appears as two monitor screens, also changes color to indicate the status of the modem (see Table 1. ICON Condition.).

If the icon does not appear in the System Tray, it can be restored by any of the following methods:

Restart the PC.

Click the Windows START button, then Programs, ADSL Modem Driver, and Add CSA Tray Icon.

Go to the CONTROL PANEL and double-click the ADSL Control and Status icon.

While connected, the System Tray CSA icon provides pop-up text that gives information about the current ADSL connection. This text appears when the cursor is placed over the icon. The information displayed is:
