Router 1 ADSL -> Router 2 ADSL connection

[silverhairb]

In considering various types of interconnectivity between two routers in a lab, is it possible to connect a DSL port in one router to the DSL port in a second router using 1 x WIC-1ADSL in each router?

If so, could the pretty lavender DSL over POTS cable from Cisco work or do I need to build a "crossover cable" swapping the two conductors pin-outs?

I think the answer to that would be yes but with the WIC-1SHADSL-V2 card but wait for the Pros to respond...

"...G.shdsl technology allows customers to link two Cisco 2600/3700s with WIC-1SHDSL-V2 cards back-to-back over standard 26 AWG telephone wire and provide up to 4.6-Mbps WAN connectivity between the two sites..."

And finally a configuration example..

Note that the WIC-1ADSL and the WIC-1SHDSL-V1/V3 do not list back-to-back configs available...

Hoe this helps!

Correction! Sorry!

Also, regarding the cable I think you need a CAB-ETHXOVER

Here is a link to some guys that sell a lab and they state that they recommend the WIC-1SHDSL-V2 plus the rest of the lab recommendations! (Especially for ISCW)!

Good Luck! HTH!

I would think no, since a DSLAM is needed, but perhaps I am wrong. Never thought of that. You don't want to fry the MoBo or the daughter card, though...

Perhaps you could email the individuals selling the lab listed in the link above and ask them what the configuration will look like and if a DSLAM is needed. They do not have one listed in their kit!

I was talking about Asynch DSL, not Single PAir High Speed---with the single p[air of wires, XMIT and RCV, yes, it is possible. Bill was asking about the WIC-1ADSL though. The answer is still no, as far as I can tell...
A "CAB-ETHXOVER" is a regular ethernet crossover---the shdsl has an RJ-11 input, I believe...could be wrong (believe it or not...lol).

Yes, I was asking about connecting two routers together over ADSL using 1 x WIC-1ADSL cards in each router. I can't seem to find any back-to-back connection info.

Reason for this is to be able to use these routers for practical purposes after being used in the lab.
