[How To]: Alcatel Speedtouch USB Modem

Many people have tried to install it unattended and no solutions found until today.

I've combined my ISP installation CD with the latest drivers.

From http://speedtouchdsl.com/download/drivers/...ws_R3.0.1.2.zip for example.

2.- Extract them with WinRAR or WinZIP to a new folder. In the example I'll use C:\Speedtouch

3.- The installation process it's InstallShield so copy this code and save it as "setup.iss" in the same folder where you extracted the main installation, that is C:\Speedtouch:

[InstallShield Silent]
Version=v6.00.000
File=Response File
[File Transfer]
OverwrittenReadOnly=NoToAll
[{D41FAAA9-8048-4906-86B2-9AADEA1FA0B7}-DlgOrder]
Dlg0={D41FAAA9-8048-4906-86B2-9AADEA1FA0B7}-SdWelcome-0
Count=5
Dlg1={D41FAAA9-8048-4906-86B2-9AADEA1FA0B7}-SdLicense-0
Dlg2={D41FAAA9-8048-4906-86B2-9AADEA1FA0B7}-SdAskDestPath-0
Dlg3={D41FAAA9-8048-4906-86B2-9AADEA1FA0B7}-SdSelectFolder-0
Dlg4={D41FAAA9-8048-4906-86B2-9AADEA1FA0B7}-SdFinish-0
[{D41FAAA9-8048-4906-86B2-9AADEA1FA0B7}-SdWelcome-0]
Result=1
[{D41FAAA9-8048-4906-86B2-9AADEA1FA0B7}-SdLicense-0]
Result=1
[{D41FAAA9-8048-4906-86B2-9AADEA1FA0B7}-SdAskDestPath-0]
szDir=C:\Archivos de programa\Kit ADSL USB
Result=1
[{D41FAAA9-8048-4906-86B2-9AADEA1FA0B7}-SdSelectFolder-0]
szFolder=Kit ADSL USB
Result=1
[{D41FAAA9-8048-4906-86B2-9AADEA1FA0B7}-SdFinish-0]
Result=1
bOpt1=0
bOpt2=0

You can change "szDir=C:\Archivos de programa\Kit ADSL USB" string to select the installation directory. "C:\Archivos de programa" means root of your %PROGRAMFILES% folder, change it as desired.

Next step it's edit the "setup.ini" file that comes with our drivers; use this:

[Startup]
AppName=SpeedTouch USB
FreeDiskSpace=0
EnableLangDlg=N

[ISPUPDATE]
UpdateURL=

[Languages]
Default=0x0009
key0=0x0009
key1=0x040c
key2=0x0007
key3=0x000a
key4=0x0416
key5=0x0010
key6=0x001d
key7=0x0013
count=8
TypeOfLangSelection=2

[Settings]
ErrorLogFile=
Folder=Kit ADSL USB
TargetDir=Kit ADSL USB
GUI=1
Install=1
Remove=1
Upgrade=0
Background=0

[DUN]
File=DUN.ini

[Diagnostics]
DeskTopIcon=0
StartMenuIcon=0
AppName=Kit ADSL USB
PlayLogo=1
Code=84565732
Throughput=0
CThroughput=
CAvThroughput=
CBackground=
Taskbar=0
AutoStart=0
UpdateSpeed=29


[STDialUp]
DeskTopIcon=0
StartMenuIcon=0
AppName=
PlayLogo=
CloseOnConnect=1

4.- If you try to install it you'll notice that you need a "Phone Book" so create a new folder inside C:\Speedtouch named Phonebook, and there you have to place a Phonebook.ini, the one that uses my ISP it's:

[Version]
FileVersion=3.0

[Driver]
DriverType=0

[ModemSettings]
ModemOption=10

[Modem.ISDN]
ModemMode=3

[Modem.POTS]
ModemMode=1

[USB]
MaxAltSetting=1
BandWidthAlgo=0
ForcedSelection=0
BMaxDSL=8128

[Maximum simultaneous connections]
MaxSimConnections=1

[0001]
Name=Telefonica
PeakDownstreamBitRate=254
EncapsulationMode=3
PeakUpstreamBitRate=26
VpiVci_VPI=8
VpiVci_VCI=32
DataAltSetting=3
MTU=1492
FCS=2

[cks]
cks=36506

This part it's tricky because everyone can have different settings and this file may not work on your system, feel free to test it and try to search in your ISP CD for a file named Phonebook.ini.

The final file have to be named DUN.ini and must be stored on C:\Speedtouch, this file (optional) includes default settings for our connection:

[Dialup]
FileVersion=1.3
NumEntry=1

[Default]
Name=Speedtouch Connection
User=
Pwd=
URL=
CountryID=
CountryCode=
AreaCode=
LocalPhoneNumber=<<ANY>>

[Default.Netprotocols]
NetBEUI=0
Ipx=0
Ip=1

[Default.Options]
UseCountryAndAreaCodes=0
IpHeaderCompression=0
RemoteDefaultGateway=1
DisableLcpExtensions=0
SwCompression=0
RequireEncryptedPw=0
RequireMsEncryptedPw=0
RequireDataEncryption=0
NetworkLogon=0
UseLogonCredentials=0
ModemLights=1
ShowDialingProgress=1
PreviewUserPw=1
PreviewDomain=0

5.- Now select all the files and folders and create a new RAR-SFX exe file with this comment:

;The comment below contains SFX script commands

Path=%SYSTEMDRIVE%\Speedtouch
Overwrite=1

So it will be extracted to %SYSTEMDRIVE%\Speedtouch and place the new "Speedtouch.exe" on your XPCD\Software\Speedtouch\

6.- Almost done... now it's time to call the installation, for this I've choose RunOnceEx because it's a late time on the installation and the registry it's mostly finished. Place this in RunOnceEx:

REG ADD %KEY%\048 /VE /D "Alcatel Speed Touch USB Modem" /f
REG ADD %KEY%\048 /V 1 /D "%CDROM%\Software\Speedtouch\Speedtouch /s" /f
REG ADD %KEY%\048 /V 2 /D "%SYSTEMDRIVE%\Speedtouch\Setup.exe /S -f1\"%SYSTEMDRIVE%\Speedtouch\setup.iss\" -f2\"%systemdrive%\Alcatel.log\"" /f

I've used the %CDROM% string for more information visit http://unattended.msfn.org/xp/runonceex_cd.htm

It seems Interresting, I will give it a try.

Good work

**SiMoNsAyS** · September 16, 2004

Pleasant to see it helps, thanks guy

**SiMoNsAyS** · September 17, 2004

Guide Updated!

Added a few tips and modified path of installation.

**Doggie** · September 27, 2004

thanx for that, i recently got the exact modem and wonder how

**evilvoice** · September 28, 2004

I would like to add that this method does not work for ALL Alcatel USB modem users...I was loading a friends machine and decided I would use the updated drivers...BAD IDEA...wouldnt connect AT ALL. Loaded the cd that came with the dsl, and it worked flawlessly...there is something somewhere either in the instructions, or in the drivers, that is not allowing the modem to connect...I will try once again using some of the stuff from the dsl cd and the updated drivers and post back exactly what I find...just thought I would let some people know that this does not work for all alcatel modems...

**SiMoNsAyS** · September 28, 2004

@evilvoice if the installation starts and then fails take a look under code of section 4

This part it's tricky because everyone can have different settings so try to search in your ISP CD for a file named Phonebook.ini.

every dsl has different settings, mine it's only a base, you have to build your own based on your isp...

**evilvoice** · September 29, 2004

no, it actually causes many problems...It sets everything up correctly, but when I connect, IE doesnt find an address...now I know, someone will say it has to do with IE, but how is it, in the same breath, that I can uninstall those drivers and install the ones from my cd, and internet explorer works...I dunno...Ive even gone as far as copying over all the ini/iss files over to the new drivers...something in the drivers break the modem from connecting to internet explorer...I mean, it even says I login and have a connection...so I dunno...as I said, I was just letting people know that what you have posted may not work for them...Im not saying your wrong, so dont take offense...maybe Im a little peeved for not having this info before now, since I spent 3 days fixing this problem...when you drive to your friends house and have to sit there until 12, and you work at 2, and you go back the next day and do the same thing...it gets a little annoying...but i digress...so, maybe adding a note that this may not work for all people would be nice... no hard feelings, cuz at least it works now.

On another note, is there a way to get the stdialer to autostart...I tried adding the detting you have for diagnostics to stdialer, and it didnt work...so I thought maybe youd know...again, dont take offense, because I dont mean any...

**SiMoNsAyS** · September 29, 2004

@evilvoice no problem with you guy, no offense, it's just that i thought it was clear that this can not work depending on your isp settings.

if the installation it's correct then there it's a problem with dun.ini or phonebook.ini again try to search on the cd you got together with the modem if it can help. sorry if something from here cause you that tons of problems anyway for me works perfect, it's just there is something you need to tweak, good luck

about stdialer, sorry i dunno

ps: i'll edit the original post to left it clearer

**arry** · September 29, 2004

Trust me, I had this modem a few years ago and it sucks.......USB ADSL modems are a real pain....

Get yourself an ethernet modem, they are just as cheap these days and will save you lots of frustration.

Well, my two cents worth anyway.

**SiMoNsAyS** · November 4, 2004

ok many unattended installation and working flawlessly.

a few tweaks added and corrected

**LeveL** · November 20, 2005

So the real best solution is: get an Ethernet Modem?!

Hmmmm, think I might try that.

I have a different problem with this same heapa s**t.

**LeveL** · March 17, 2006

Can anyone translate this...

REG ADD %KEY%\048 /VE /D "Alcatel Speed Touch USB Modem" /f
REG ADD %KEY%\048 /V 1 /D "%CDROM%\Software\Speedtouch\Speedtouch /s" /f
REG ADD %KEY%\048 /V 2 /D "%SYSTEMDRIVE%\Speedtouch\Setup.exe /S -f1\"%SYSTEMDRIVE%\Speedtouch\setup.iss\" -f2\"%systemdrive%\Alcatel.log\"" /f

Into the normal commands?

Should it be....

ECHO.
ECHO Installing Alcatel Speed Touch USB Modem
ECHO Please wait...
start /wait %CDROM%\$OEM$\$1\drivers\ALCATEL\Speedtouch.exe /s
start %SYSTEMDRIVE%\Speedtouch\Setup.exe /S -f1\"%SYSTEMDRIVE%\Speedtouch\setup.iss\"-f2\"%systemdrive%\Alcatel.log\"

With the last 2 lines on one line, assuming I have these files in these directories!
