ADSL2 offers range much greater than did the first ADSL
generation, and is significantly more robust than ADSL, as
it can simply disable single carrier frequencies when they
produce interference. This feature allows ADSL2 to
prevent synchronization losses.
With a throughput rate of up to 12 Mbit/s downstream,
ADSL2 offers considerably greater bandwidth than ADSL.
ADSL2 is completely downward compatible, meaning that
terminal equipment compliant with ADSL can also be
operated on ADSL2 lines, although they cannot exploit the
advantages of ADSL2.

ADSL2+ (G.992.5) is a further development of the ADSL
norm (G.992.1/ G.992.2).
ADSL2+ offers a doubled frequency range used for
downstream transmission, and thus double the maximum
bandwidth achievable for downstream to 24 Mbit/s.
ADSL2+ is completely downward compatible, meaning
that terminal equipment compliant with ADSL and ADSL2
can also be operated on ADSL2+ lines, although they
cannot exploit the advantages of ADSL2+.
An ADSL-Controller is an electronic hardware module that
allows a PC to access an ADSL line. ADSL-Controllers are
stationary equipment, included on internal ADSL cards
(for the PCI bus) or in external ADSL modems (with USB or
Ethernet ports).
The context menu is a menu that is normally not visible.
The context menu opens only when you click with the right
mouse button on a button, a graphic or a word. Depending
on where you clicked, the context menu contains only the
most common menu commands for the given object.
If you are using an Apple computer, click the "Ctrl" while
clicking instead.
