To change the VPI/VCI on the Alcatel 1000 you will need to change your computer’s Local Area Network IP address settings to the following:

IP Address: 10.0.0.2
Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.0

Once you make this change and reboot the computer (if necessary) open up a web browser (Internet Explorer, Netscape Navigator, etc.). In the address bar type in this address:

http://10.0.0.138/

This will bring up the Alcatel introduction screen. Once this screen loads click on the Bridge link.

The next screen displayed is the Port Stats screen. Locate the area labeled Use input fields below to add a new entry. Beneath the VPI column enter a 0 and beneath the VCI column enter 35. Once this is complete click on the Add button.

This will add the new port to the configuration. The new port should be displayed beneath the old port. Click Delete next to the row that contains the VPI of 8 and the VCI of 35.

 

Once the 8/35 row is deleted click on the Save button to the right. This will save the new settings and complete the configuration process.

When the setup is complete change your IP address settings back to the original settings to begin surfing the Internet.
