Cisco 837 using French Telecom

In fact there is no problem you can use the "lavander" cable shipped in the box because we use ADSL Filters with "French SRTE" connector on one side and a RJ11 on the other side.

I have a CISCO 857W and it works fine in France with Wanadoo/Orange ISP.

Here is my current working conf (857W is wifi enabled).

You may wish to investigate the Cisco 837 Config Wizard:

as well as the Cisco 837 IPv6 Config Wizard:

Hope this helps.

I have put an 877 in france too.

I agree with the above config.

One thing though that I checked on is that the "phone" line was not ISDN since I have heard that ISDN is used in some cases for domestic lines in France.

The French, as is their custom, use their own term for ISDN, namely RNIS (IIRC) which is as you might expect an acronym representing a translation of Integrated Services Digital Network.

This one was also on Orange (ex Wanadoo).

Config fragment:

interface ATM0 description ADSL Connection to Internet no ip address load-interval 30 no atm ilmi-keepalive pvc 8/35 pppoe-client dial-pool-number 1 ! dsl operating-mode auto

interface Dialer1 bandwidth 512 ip address negotiated ip nat outside encapsulation ppp dialer pool 1 dialer-group 1 ppp authentication pap chap callin ppp chap hostname a-hostname ppp chap password a-password

dialer-list 1 protocol ip permit

Thanks for all your support guys.

I am still getting ATM0 down down in "show ip int brief" which still appears to be a cable issue to me.

I have the user connected with the supplied purple cable and after some translation issues it seems that the carier detect light isnt illuminated.

Will call FT/Orange today again to confirm that it is indeed ADSL and not ISDN

User now explains he has ADSL2, which Cisco website states is not supported by the 837.

Bad luck for him, still thought i'd get some sort of ATM signal.

Thanks aga> Thanks for all your support guys.
