Alcatel Speedtouch 330 USB ADSL Modem Silver Model - Works
Posts: 5
I am using Alcatel Speedtouch 330 USB ADSL Modem the silver model on Mepis 3.4.3 and 6.0 beta2.
It works fine using the nice script, driver and howtos provided by Steve Parker:
http://steve-parker.org/speedtouchconf/
Following the steps there, this is what I did on my situation:
1. Download the script: speedtouchconf.tar.gz
It's available here:
http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=68502
It can be downloaded from several mirrors:
http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/speedtouchconf/speedtouchconf-2.0-09_Jan_2006.tar.gz?download
2. Download the firmware
My modem is the silver one, so I use this: rev4fw.zip
Downloaded it from here:
http://steve-parker.org/speedtouchconf/firmware/rev4fw.zip
3. Extract the files:
tar -xzvf speedtouchconf-2.0-09_Jan_2006.tar.gz
(This will create a new folder or directory named as: speedtouchconf-2.0-09_Jan_2006)
4. Save or copy the firmware (rev4fw.zip) into the speedtouchconf-2.0-09_Jan_2006 directory
(Note: just copy it into that directory, NO NEED to unzip it)
5. Change into the created speedtouchconf directory:
cd speedtouchconf-2.0-09_Jan_2006
Run the script as root:
# ./speedtouchconf.sh
Wait and follow the instructions:
I had to enter the VPI and VCI numbers and ISP Login ID and Password.
the modem will blink and connect.
Note:
Sample list of VPI and VCI numbers can be found here:

All the best.

You can also use speedtouch-ng. It work perfectly on Mepis 6.0 and it's very easy to configure it.
