i have set up all settings including pass and username for my broadband and modem settings but when i try to connect my computer then reboots???????? so i tried to change some settings on modem my isp said to set


vpi=0
vci=38
with these settings it reboots.
so i tried to change the vci number to 34 it didnt reboot
then 35 didnt reboot

A VPI identifies a unidirectional transport of ATM cells belonging to a bundle of virtual channels
A VCI describes a unidirectional transport of ATM cells
8 bits for VPI and 16 bits for VCI (at the UNI) are used for routing purposes
Assignment of VPI/VCI is done by:
The network
The user
Negotiation between the user and network (signalling)
Standardization (Preassigned VCI/VPI values e.g., unassigned cell, etc.)


you can only use this settings:

What should VPI/VCIbe set as?
VPI/VCI tells you how the modem is setting up the
connection. They are unique to the UK DSL rollout.
VPI should be set to 0
VCI should be set to 38


I have never worked with an USB internet card....so i dont know about VCI/VPI.
