The invention relates to a method and a system for testing performances of DSL (digital subscriber line) access equipment and the DSL access equipment. The method comprises the following steps of adding an NSLookup module on a CWMP (CPE Wan Management Protocol), sending an NSlookup command to the DSL access equipment through a communication line on a TR069 platform, and determining the network connectivity of the DSL access equipment according to the response information sent back by the DSL access equipment. The method, the system and the DSL access equipment have the beneficial effects that a method for detecting the network connectivity of the DSL access equipment is added into a DSL access network environment, so a network management person can select the detection method in a flexible and diversified way, the convenience is provided for the management of the network equipment, and the management efficiency is improved; and meanwhile, the mutual lookup of a domain name or an IP (internet protocol) address can be realized on a remote TR069 platform, so the convenience is provided for the lookup of the domain name or the IP address.
