just reset your modem. there should be a option in menu itself

judging by your acts, u are a naughty kidhttp://livinonaprayer.superforos.com/images/smiles/nana.gif

[s18000rpm]

no error msg shown:(.

btw i changed (upgraded) from Home 250 to UL900.

& now that "Stop current service" link has diappeared.

does this mean that the BB plan will get de-graded to Home 250:( .

i' turned off net & then re-connected & logged in & out numerious times in "Account Usage" page, but still it shows User Status - Offline:(.

i hope what you said is TRUE about the links in that page:D:D:D

[gary4gar]

dude

No data has been charged, & still the "Service name" is shown as "Plan- HOME UL 900"

So Far So Good.

the only thing bugging me is the User Status thing, which is still showing User Status - Offline

Tomorow the first thing i'm doing is to call BSNL Service Person for a doubt clarification:D

Guys, my bro disabled PPPoe at his office. Means no need to dialup, Always on Connection.

I think it must be there somewhere in the thread, but even after searching i could not find it.
Can anyone help me how to guide him to access the net Wifi'ly?

your question is quite hazy, did your bro disabled or enabled the PPPoe, because that how you don't need a dialup

anyway if your router is wifi enabled, just go ahead configure it, in dhcp, same with you laptop, you can get connected right in.

good luck

My Brother disabled PPPoE. Now he does not need a dialup to connect to the internet.

I did not understand what you meant by configure DHCP, same with you laptop.

On his computer, His Lan Card has an IP Address. Should i ask him to use the same IP address for his Laptop's WiFi?

Hi friends ,
I have 900 Plus UL plan and my friend has 500 plan.
I generally use net at night and he use it in day time.
So , today we decided to share our uname and passwords for mutual benefits . I thought I will access net with his uname at 2 mbps but what I m getting is same 256 kbps as in my 900 plan but he gets 2mbps with his same uname and password . I wanna know why this is happeneing ???? Do I need to change some settings ??? Please reply soon...
Also tell me is there any harm in sharing uname , passwords and using each others accounts ???

i think they applied dl limits on Phone numbers, ie your phone number is registered with 900 plan with 256kbps speed and his line is with 500 plan with upto 200mbps, so their system stops your line's d/l limit to 256kbps

(i think so)

[lavan_joy]

BSNL (finally) launched the broadband in our area last week. But they don't have ADSL 2+ modem for sale to the bsnl dataone customers.

So we have to buy the modem from the hardware resellers.Which brand has the good compatibility with BSNL Dataone? D-Link ADSL 2+ ???

Or any ADSL 2+ modem can work properly with DATAONE? Let me know as early as possible.

[s_aerin]

is there any speed differential btw the modems??
my friend is using a D-Link modem and getting a download speed of 200Kbps and i m using bsnl's modem but getting a speed of 70 KBPS..
but we r browsing internet in different cities...

[varunprabhakar]

i am noticing very low speeds since today.
30kBps dwnld as compd to 200kBps earlier.
how do i make ot whether its problem with my router or at the bsnl server end?
is there any possible way to diagnose the prob??

[yrana2002]

Wohoo..
Just today, my pc started a 1.2GB downloading file, automatically at 2:00AM and by the time i got up at 5:00AM, it had already finished.
I couldnt believe my eyes, looking at the stats of my torrent client. The second time i've experienced such amazing speeds. I dont know what exactly they were, but from the average download speed, i can deduce that my bandwidth during that time was somewhere around 960kb/s

See the screenshot:

Experienced 220KB/s or 1760kb/s throughout the download. Downloaded an entire 1.4GB file in about less than 2 hours...

So, inevitably, since yesterday, i've downloaded 2.7GB in virtually less than 5 hours :D

[tech_lover]

what are the typeI to type IV modems given by BSNL? Are different hardware required? Does speed depend on these types of modem or the plan?

Thanks

[janitha]

Type I Has one USB and one Ethernet
Type II has one Ethernet and one WiFi
Type III has 4 Ethernet
Type IV has 4 Ethernet and one WiFi
Speed should be equal at least theoretically.

[appu]

plans are same

may be then some problem in server in ur area
r may be modem problem if it is provided by bsnl contact them they wil check it and rectify the prob
r also one primary reason may be spyware r virus in ur system

[ajayashish]

recently Dlink launched a wireless ADSL modem cum router. Does anyone have that and how well does it work with BSNL. Can we share computer files through this modem cum router

[gofeddy]

Does it make any difference to your modem or internet connection when you update your modem framework?
Because, I updated the framework for my MT880 modem but I found no difference at all.

Hey...i have some queries....
I got my BSNL phone installed on 5th of march 07.My broadband connection H500 installed on 15th March 07..... The following are the queries....

1.When will i get my first bill from BSNL?
2.If my broadband started on 15th of March the will i be charged for the whole month i.e Rs.500.
3.They provide 2.5 GB/Month as a download limit.So will i get 2.5GB for just 15 days of march or should i use only 1.2B GB in the month of march.
4.If they give me 2.5GB for march then would that mean this limit is reset on 1st of every month and i would be gettin a new 2.5 GB limit on 1st of April.

Thank you for your patience......
Pls reply...

[varunprabhakar]

@ 786 and all kolkata users who are facing low speed during night unlimited hours (2am - 8am)..

i have taken some steps against this problem..

1> submitted letter regarding this problem to the DE Broadband (local exchange) and DE Broadband (telephone bhavan) with all details.
2> met with DGM Broadband personally and explained my problem, with all the documents (e.g. the copy of letters i submitted to the DE and printout of speed checking report + screen shot of trace root report). But he told me that i am only user who facing this problem.

1 week passed but no result come out.

that was my personal and indivisual try..

but i request all to take a step towards it.. lets all get together and shout to them.. that they can hear us loud and clear..

NO use of shouting, nothing will work unless you post this in a new thread so that other users can also see this and also informing other users who are facing this problem, by other means. Two is not enough for taking steps like this. A foolish work indeed.

1. The Link Light on Type I modem doesn't glow even though the guy who came to install said that it will become green in 2 days

2. On my PC an error comes that says limited or no connectivity because the network did not assign a network address to the computer

You will not need any extra software the inbuilt shell is powerful enough to handle day to uses.Just plug the router though ethernet(Lan) and DHCP will automatically take care of rest. You will just need to put the dataone user id & password into the router.then enjoy safe & fast internet on GNu/linux.

They haven't yet ativated the Adsnl link on your telephone number from the exchange. contact your SDO

2. On my PC an error comes that says limited or no connectivity because the network did not assign a network address to the computer
use the following values control panel>network connections>properties>TCP/IP>properties
ip 192.168.1.2
default gateway 192.168.1.1



3. And finally inspite for asking to buy the modem, I received an old modem with no warranty card. Is this the norm?

Please help.

Thanks
No norm
its based upon availability so if u want a new one then want for a while when new routers arrive. At present there is shortfall in supply of routers(modems). Type I & III are extinct and II & IV are in the endangered list:D
YOu can always buy a modem from outside with you are not stattisfied with BSnl routers

[Harvik780]

I sometimes get good speeds and sometimes the speed goes down to challenge dialup.Really hard as sometimes digit does not open.

[janitha]

Same with me also.

[brokenarrow]

i m not getting full upload speed i m getting only 20-22 kBps whereas my frns r getting upto 50-60kBps whatz the problem .is it my modem r something else..

[janitha]

Today when I downloaded a big (SW) file from my office, (Busi 700 Plan) it was an almost constant 220 KBps.

[Harvik780]

The fact is that though bsnl rocks it sucks too

[royal]

Dataone has been extremely sluggish today. Anyone experiencing the same (esp Kolkata users) ?

Same here :(

[freebird]

dataone was not responding(cant connect) from today ~12PM to 2.30 PM,it simply errs out.

[s18000rpm]

in b'lore too BSNL was not at all connecting.

1st i missed the F1 on TV (frequent cable cut), then dataone was not working :x, really bad unlucky day for me & Ferrari:D

[Harvik780]

To hell goes BSNL,but not me.Same with me.

[nandmkumar]

It is rather astonishing and disappointing as well to note that BSNL Dataone customers have been fooled. The "Home 500 Plan" customers had the advantage to use free unlimited use time pack from 2000 hrs to 0800 hrs. But now it seems that BSNL has modified/reduced the same from 0200 hrs to 0800 hrs recently which is rally equiivalent to cheating the customers

[Harvik780]

What do u mean cause i download linux distros during night from 2:00 am to 8:00 am.

hey guys can any one tell me plan 900 UL wat is the speed of this plan i saw on the Bsnl site it shows 256Kbps

[s18000rpm]

only 256kbps = 32KBps

[NIGHTMARE]

but friend tell me the Bsnl increase the speed 2Mbps for all plans

[s18000rpm]

except 900UL, all plans are upgraded to "upto 2MBps" speed.


BSNL's 900UL sucks :x

P.S. i'm a 900UL user :D

[NIGHTMARE]

reliance provide 300Kbps @900UL so ts better i am already using a reliance broad band connection 75 Kbps @400 UL

[tgpraveen]

GUys pls inbox me and tell me how to check on which plan of dataone i am on

[Kniwor]

I need some help regarding BSNL, one of my friends need a connection in KOTA and he does NOT have any bsnl connection already. Here are my questions

1) Is it necessary to take the Bfone before u can take internet from them?

2) If he does take the bfone, will there be additional charges for it's installation? He will not be using the phone in any case.

3) If he does take the phone and broadband, and then never use the phone, will he have to pay any monthly rental for the phone also, assume that he will be using home 500 plan and will purchase the modem one-time, how much monthly he will have to pay(no phone usage)?

[s18000rpm]

GUys pls inbox me and tell me how to check on which plan of dataone i am on http://10.240.43.216

now enter the User ID & password, then click "User Info"

now you'll know which plan you're subscribed to.

As far as I know, only in case of Home Plan UL 900 Plus you will not be charged monthly rental.

"For Home Plan UL 900 Plus: Telephone Rental per month- Nil, Free Calls- Nil,
MCU charges per Pulse @ Rs. 1/- shall be applicable. The calls shall be charged
as per pulse rate of BSNl Bfone General Plan. Security Deposit and Installation
charges as applicable for Local/STD/ISD shall be taken from new customers."

[Harvik780]

I am getting low download speeds during night unlimited.The speed reaches over 120 kilo bytes/sec but then goes down to 40-44 kilo bytes/sec.It seems that BSNL has slowed down my speed on purpose.They Just want me to browse faster.Maybe i'll switch to BSNL's 900unlimited plan.I used to get good speeds when i used MTNL in Delhi.I think we should start a thread on "BSNL's Cheating on me."

@s18000rpm THX a lot man i checked what u r saying and where for u it says 900UL for me it says download speed 2mbps then on which plan am i on

[Harvik780]

Oh maaan,i m sick of BSNL.Tonight i m getting speeds as low as 670 bytes.I telephoned the customer care about this then they forwarded my complaint to the exchange.Yesterday i got a ring from the exchange and they told me to get a joint less telephone line from the pole.It was BSNL who gave the connection well along with the wires which have joints at points but only 3.Is it due to these joints or there's something else wrong.Has the modem become faulty.Should i replace the wire manually with a joint less one(even i removed the joints there would be two remaining,one on the pole an the other on the phone).Please someone give me some advise on how to tackle the problem and get good speeds.I have the BSNL 500 home plan and Quidway WA1003A modem.I have troubleshooted both using LAN and usb.I have windows vista and there is absoltly no virus or malware eating the bandwidth.I got the connection about a month back and i used to get good speeds of about 120-280 Kilobytes/sec(ya 280 sometimes it even went above 300 Kilobytes/sec during night).Just google "Reasons why bsnl sucks" and u will get plenty.

[s18000rpm]

D-link offers a good no of realiable modems for adsl type but i would like to advise u one thing
Dat is opt for a bsnl provided modem
Reasons
1. coz then they wil provide all kinds of support if its their own modem
2. even if there is a problem wit ur connection they wil blame ur modem and after many crys and shouts they may try to check out if there is any connection problem
3. Even i once thought of these and went out to a reputed comp hardware shop and asked him for Bsnl modem but d owner of d store itself told me not to buy one and told me d above reasons and d tantrums u may have to face in case any prob occurs in ur connection.

So now its up to u to decide abt it :D

Hi friends....I am using Windows Ultimate....I have BSNL dataone HOME 900 UL plan..I have Huawei SmartX MT882 modem...So far I access internet through LAN cable...Now I want to access net through USB CABLE which I got with the modem....But I don't have drivers for vista...will XP drivers work for vista as well......Also please kindly give the step by step procedure to install usb drivers for my modem......as my manual is missing.......

Whats wrong with LAN cable, its always a good idea to avoid USB, because it requires drivers!! Go and set the modem back to LAN cable, don't use USB.

[bandhu]

due to disruption in connection and no indication on LED, thinking that the driver probramme is corrupted, I un-installed the huawei smartAX MT 882 ADSL router BSNL dataone modem programme.
I tried reinstalling from CD supplied by BSNL. But was stuck up halfway through and cancelled the setup.

Upon trying to reinstall again from set up.exe programme i amm getting a message that it is already installed and if wanting to reinstall, uninstall first but.. I am not able to find any such program on my computer.

Kindly help me in uninstalling and reinstalling the software.

Nobody is replying properly at local office. Can you guide me where I can complain ? I have full data printout with me but I am finding helpless.

bsnl is known for ghost billing thats because of bad billing infrastructure they have in place. seriously the bsnl billing system needs a over haul as it is ages old. now atleast bsnl as tied up with hcl to improve its billing but that will take time.

As your case is also case of ghost billing, you will find many of your fellow users here also still fighting for months & months.only very few of them have there problems solved.

Now for your problem solution, first of all stop roaming the bsnl office and write to your commercial officer about your problem giving all the facts datewise along with all the proofs and send it via registered post. Insist that you should get all your communication with bsnl on paper so that you can prove later.

I went to a site to know my i.p. Then i paste my i.p on address bar. The modem site of my open. Then I tried changing the i.p this way
If my ip is
59.xx.33.172/ (http://59.xx.33.172/)
Changed to 59.xx.33.179/ (http://59.xx.33.179/) failed
59.xx.33.180 (http://59.xx.33.180/) failed
59.xx.33.175 (http://59.xx.33.175/) worked
opened a modem site same as my. Then I check the username it was different. So i came to conclution that i access some ones modem. I could restart the modem and do what ever I could to my modem.

My parents in India have the Broadband connection, voice chat is just fine. They can see my webcam, but I can't see their webcam. And also I can see their webcam & do voice chat if they connect via dialup with the same setting on the same computer.

Hi..

Have a BSNL Dataone connection thats been working alright for last one year or so. However have not been able to connect from last 4-5 days. Had called BSNL support and the guy who came said that its a IE/Windows problem?? Have run AVG antivirus and anti-spyware scans which did not find anything.

Initially was able to connect but wouldnt open any sites but now am unable to connect to the net at all. Even tried shutting down my ZA firewall but that did not happen either..

Please..any ideas that I could try..

Will await any help..

Yes, you can browse with all three computers on one connection.

I think it is using LAN connection, do we need to configure anything specifically?. Not only that I am not able to connect using Netmeeting, & I used some remote desktop access s/w but they can see my screen not vice versa. Please help.

When i tried last time I told them to shutdown the antivirus etc to see if that is blocking. Will these spyware displayed in the Taskmanager when it runs, because they used the same PC without any changes in the setting but connected thru dialup. It works properly but not with BSNL broadband connection.

Thanks.

[ITTechPerson]

spyware will not showup anywhere but only in antyspyware scan - try spyware doctor

I am just guessing the cam is not configured properly in broadband - ask them to remove the driver of the cam & reinstall it, then configure it in Instant msngr.
U posted early tht u can't access thr remote comp - is it only via broadband?

Yes it is via broadband but my parents can see my screen but not the other way. Also I could not access thr remote comp via dialup because of the bandwidth issue.

BSNL. On enquiry about the same they inform me that I have to apply seperately for the same. I do so on 12/04/2007, but inspite of several reminder BSNL yet not inform me the email ID. Please tell me what I have to do for the same.
The e-mail id is "username@dataone.in"

I am getting at max 218 KB/s or 1.74 Mbps,from muvattupuzha near ernakulam.
Yes, I am from Kollam and I use Home 250. While downloading large files, I normally get near or around 200 KBps but at times it becomes very slow, especially of late.

[gary4gar]

dear gary4gar, is thrn't any way out, without buyin a lan card...i heard that firmware upgrade can help....is it so? whr can i find it! pls help
well try your luck with updating firmware & all things of that sort but we can't garranty that it will work or not.

submit a application to your customer service node/center

[janitha]

submit a application to your customer service node/center
Yes.
I submitted an application in the morning for my office 700 connection to be shifted to Plan 250 and when I checked the usage page in the afternoon it was changed. I had made advance payment for one year and the excess amount is being deducted from the telephone bill.

I mean to say that at times they are very prompt.

I'm in Cochin. I get only upload speeds btw. 3kBps & 12kBps. I'm on Home Unlimited plan.
What do you guys get ?

I heard that in Airtel BB connection you get upto 30kBps upload speed on a 256kbps line. Is it true ?

[comrade]

i need a small clarification...upload speed in my bsnl 900UL plan is around 6kBps...the same is not in the case with friends tata indicom who is getting 30KBps..both of us are on 256Kbps plan.
why this is so? tata using cable or adsl or what?

[Indranil92001]

tata using cable or adsl or what?
The speed is not depend on the router whether it is ADSL or DSL.It's depend upon the ISP provider.

[bhutbhut]

The speed is not depend on the router whether it is ADSL or DSL.It's depend upon the ISP provider.

I beg to differ here. You will always get better download speed than the upload speed in case of ADSL (Asymmetric Digital Subscriber Line) technolgy. ADSL uses two separate frequency bands, referred to as the upstream and downstream bands. The upstream band is used for communication from the end user to the telephone central office. The downstream band is used for communicating from the central office to the end user. With standard ADSL the band from 25.875 kHz to 138 kHz is used for upstream communication, while 138 kHz – 1104 kHz is used for downstream communication.
As TaTa using DSL technology, your friend getting higher upload speed also. Here is some more clarifications :

The distinguishing characteristic of ADSL over other forms of DSL is that the volume of data flow is greater in one direction than the other, i.e. it is asymmetric. Providers usually market ADSL as a service for consumers to connect to the Internet in a relatively passive mode: able to use the higher speed direction for the "download" from the Internet but not needing to run servers that would require high speed in the other direction.

There are both technical and marketing reasons why ADSL is in many places the most common type offered to home users. On the technical side, there is likely to be more crosstalk from other circuits at the DSLAM end (where the wires from many local loops are close together) than at the customer premises. Thus the upload signal is weakest at the noisiest part of the local loop, while the download signal is strongest at the noisiest part of the local loop. It therefore makes technical sense to have the DSLAM transmit at a higher bit rate than does the modem on the customer end. Since the typical home user in fact does prefer a higher download speed, the telephone companies chose to make a virtue out of necessity, hence ADSL. On the marketing side, limiting upload speeds limits the attractiveness of this service to business customers, often causing them to purchase higher cost Digital Signal 1 services instead. In this fashion, it segments the digital communications market between business and home users.

In order to get BSNL BB connection .You will have to have BSNL landline ,otherwise they will not provide BB service to you .You can select the cheapest landline package like the one for Rs 99 and get a decent BB plan.

^ OMG!Yes the same is happening;all over kerala?.I hopes broadband is not controlled from bangalore for dataone users or is it? :( hope this will be resolved soon.
error codes may differ.
but the real cause is their core server is down/ it fails to resolve user names/passwds.In windows the error starting with some #715 is the original reason.

In Bangalore since the past 2 nights(when it starts to rain) the connection drops. I called up the BSNL people and they told me that 'there's a major server breakdown'. That was yesterday.
Today the connection was fine when I connected at 11 pm(the previous night). But at 12.30 am the connection again breaks(it had not even started to rain). When I woke up in the morning to check the downloads, I am getting DL speeds of 1 KB/s and upload at 54 KB/s. This again rectified itself now at 8.35 am the speeds are back to normal again.
Is BSNL trying to curb the 2-8 am UL downloads?
Can anyone from Bangalore confirm this? I am from Jayanagar 4th Block areaand use Home 500 plan.

hey guys,

i have been getting really slow download speeds at night time i.e., frm 2AM to 8AM... i am on 500 plan. i have observed that speeds are fine till 2 AM.

its like this..

1:45 to 2:00 - transfer rate:115 kBps
2:00 to 2:30 - transfer rate: 50 kBps
2:30 to 7:30 - transfer rate: 25-30 kBps
7:30 to 8:00 - transfer rate: 50 kBps
8:00 to 8:15 - transfer rate: 115 kBps [back on track]

is bsnl manually throttling the speeds during those times?? can i register any complain or is it a usual problem?

try again and see .

Whhat abt my problem . it is still persisting . weird . . . . .

[almighty]

hi frnds
i opt dataone connection 10 days back with basic phone connection
as i am not aware of plans ,i go with the start up plan, i don know abt the limits, now i know that i can use only 1 gb in one month
currently i am using 250 home plan but i would to change it for 500 home plan...
i can i change it... do i have to apply for new connection...
actualy the main prob is that net and phone connection belong to my dad name
and he is not in the city now and probably he come back after 2-3 months...
so if i tell bsnl executives to change the tariff they ask for the owner permission which i am not able to give them ryte now...
but i don want to continue with this 250 home plan coz the usage limit is too low and it cross limit in a week only
so is dere any way to change the tariff online so that i can log with my id and pass and request bsnl to change or amend my current plan to home 500
plz help me out frnds
thanking u and expecting a reply soon

Hi, I want to get "Home UL plus plan" now my question is that, there is no monthly rental for landline so is it possible to activate other plans on landline like "111Plan" for free BSNL to Bsnl calls(gujarat)?????

[mohit]

Hey people.

I am currently using BSNL Dataone broadband service and I would like to go wireless.

I want to know what all hardware (please post model nos as well) will I require if I want to go wireless with my lappy. The network should be decent in a large sized room.

I had the chance to use the wireless modem cum router provided by BSNL and it was made by Huwawei (I hope I spelled it right). It was very decent and simple to install and the best part was the modem was inbuilt in the router itself. It offered Wireless, USB and LAN connectivity in one single device and there was no need of anything else. As I said even the modem was in built.

I am looking for something like that but it should not be real expensive as well.

Please let me know what options I have.

Thanks.

[Kniwor]

Is a Bfone necessary for taking dataone connection.
If yes, will i have to pay the bfone bill too, it will be absolutely useless here, already there sufficient phones....
If bill is to be paid, what will be the minimum monthly after taking the starter plan (including bfone bill) that I will have to pay..

A Bfone is absoultely necessary for Dataone.

If you dont want to pay the Bfone rent then opt for the Home UL 900 PLUS plan which does not have the usual Bfone rental.

All other home plans will be charged the Bfone rental separately. The rental for the Bfone comes to approx 180 bucks in each billing cycle of 2 months. (This may vary depending on your location)

[Ravirdv]

ok, i have applied for landline now if i apply for Home900+ then there would be no monthly rental for landline right?????????????

Do u mean 120/- for 2 month cycle? and what's the name of this plan..

[ayush_chh]

hi!
i have an account with 250 home plan on my tel no. the dn/up is only limited to 1GB...if i use someone elses account on my line and if the dn/up limit of his account exceeds the max who will be charged me or him???

[gary4gar]

@Kniwor
the chages i said are for Sulabh plan(incomming only)
its 120/- Per month
so 120x12 = 1440(rental for whole year)
instead you can pay 1320 as time only then nothing will come as phone rental in ur bill
check http://bsnl.in/service/tnc/basictariff.htm

Which plan is that ? Is that the Sulabh plan ? I was not being given Dataone facility on my Sulabh phone. Is it possible or is it some other plan ?
Dataone can installed on Sulabh plan there no problem at all,I have seen one of my friends was using dataone with Sulabh plan, may there must different policies for different circles.
But speaking technically there no problem because there no need to dail any number in dataone so it can be used with Sulabh plan. even i on my phone have also tried it.
once my incomming & outgoing were barred due to non-payment of bill
:D but still dataone was up and running

This is absolutely normal, the reason being, everyone who's got night unlimited takes advantage of the time between 2am to 8am. So, the users connecting to your local telephone exchange/city are downloading more during that time than any other time of day, resulting in constrained bandwidth for everyone!:mad:

Well, as you suggested, the best option is a modem cum router rather than having a seperate modem and a router. Why don't you purchase BSNL's router itself? I reckon that is quite good comparing other modem/routers in the market. However options are limited for a modem cum router but you can find a lot of WiFi routers without modems.

Modem cum Router

D-Link Wireless Router + Modem (DSL-G604T) -- Rs 4700/-
Linksys Wireless Router + Modem (WCG200) -- Rs 4700/-
Netgear Wireless Router + Modem (DG834G) -- Rs 3700/-I would certainly recommend the netgear. It's not only cheaper but also very reliable and easy to use! Thousands of customers I know prefer the netgear over the others.

Router Only

Net Gear Wireless Router (WGR614) -- Rs 2200/-
D-Link Access Point (DWLG-2100AP) Wireless Upto 108Mbps -- Rs 3400/-
D-Link Wireless Router (DI-524) -- Rs 2300/-
Linksys Wireless Router (WRT54G) -- Rs 2800/-


The choise is yours!:)

[Help~Is~Here]

hey ppl i recently applied for a bb connenction of bsnl...first they told us tht no modem was availabe so we bought one of netgear...then they told us tht theyu dnt hav any empty ports...so we waited a month and now the modem is not working....i took it to the ppl and they said it had to be tweaked so they accesed it's internal using "http://192.168.0.1" they changed some settings but when i bought it home...it didnt connect...then i asked them and they asked if the above url was being opened when i tried it...it didnt...now they r putting it off again..???plz help...why isnt it opening??....i also posted this post sumwhere else but got no reply...plz help me out??

Ok, here's what you'll need to do:


First, click on start, go to run and then type 'cmd' without the inverted commas and then hit enter or click on 'OK'
Now, you'll get a black command prompt window. If you don't get this, then either your administrator has restricted your access or cmd is missing from root directory.
Once you get the command prompt, just type in 'ipconfig' without the commas. You just need to type without clicking on anything.
Now you should get something like this:Windows IP Configuration

Ethernet adapter Local Area Connection 7:
Connection-specific DNS Suffix . :
IP Address. . . . . . . . . . . . : 192.168.0.2
Subnet Mask . . . . . . . . . . . : 255.255.255.0
Default Gateway . . . . . . . . . : 192.168.0.1

If you don't get anything like this, then there is some problem with your LAN card or drivers or maybe your LAN connection is disabled in network connections. Try reinstalling the LAN card through device manager if it's a problem with the drivers. Or, if its disabled in the control panel, right click on the local area connection and enable it.

Your Default Gateway address will be your Router's internal I.P address. This is the address that you'll need to access the router to make any configuration changes on the router.

Here's were you'll need to be careful:

Now, on the same command prompt window, type 'ping your_default_gateway_IP_address' eg: ping 192.168.0.1.

You are supposed to get something like this:

Pinging 192.168.0.1 with 32 bytes of data:
Reply from 192.168.0.1: bytes=32 time<1ms TTL=128
Reply from 192.168.0.1: bytes=32 time<1ms TTL=128
Reply from 192.168.0.1: bytes=32 time<1ms TTL=128
Reply from 192.168.0.1: bytes=32 time<1ms TTL=128
Ping statistics for 192.168.0.1:
Packets: Sent = 4, Received = 4, Lost = 0 (0% loss),
Approximate round trip times in milli-seconds:
Minimum = 0ms, Maximum = 0ms, Average = 0ms

If you get this, then it shows that your router is communicating properly with your computer. However, if you get something like this:

Pinging 192.168.0.1 with 32 bytes of data:
Request timed out.
Request timed out.
Request timed out.
Request timed out.
Ping statistics for 192.168.0.1:
Packets: Sent = 4, Received = 0, Lost = 4 (100% loss)

Then it means, your router is not talking your computer or vice versa. Also, it could be your firewall. Try disabling all your firewalls and anti virus and try ping again.

If the ping is successfull, then you can try accessing the router interface to make the necessary changes you want. However, if it still doesn't come up (doesn't even ask for router username and password), then it could be a problem with your browser.

Try these steps and let me know the outcome.:p

I have bsnl data one connection...mostilly i do get download speed around 45 to 50 KBPS..pls tell watts diffrence betwen kbps and KBPS>?
THANKS in adavnce.

Kbps = Kilo bits per second
KBps = Kilo Bytes per second

1 Byte = 8 bits

So, when you transfer a 1MB file, it's one MegaByte and not bit.

So, if you have a transfer speed of 1MBps, then it willl take 1sec to download. 1MBps = 8Mbps.

So, when you mean your dataone connection is running at 2Mbps, the maximum throuhput/transfer rate you can achieve is 250KBps or 2000Kbps.

I hope it's clear!:)

Hello friends!

I am a bit frustrated now trying for the past few hours to successfully open the ports for my client (Azureus). I am on bsnl 500 plan, with Huawei SmartAX MT880 modem.. i found out that port forwarding is important to get good speeds, but however have i tried I am not able to get past the following error:

NAT Error: IP Address:port no. Connection Time Out 20 secs.

I tried instructions on portforward.com but to no avail. I have created virtual servers but that didnt help too.. I am using ZoneAlarm firewall (not anti-virus) but disabling it makes no difference. Plz can anybody help me out?

Thanx,

Enable upnp in Azureus
Enable tcp, udp & pnp in Windows Firewall
Enable tcp, udp & upnp on the modem
If this doesn't work Try using ports 53000-63000 instead of the default.

How can I connect my laptop and desktop in Dataone 500? I have connected my laptop thru USB and I want to connect my desktop using the LAN port cause my LAN port is not working in laptop. And also when I am connecting my Laptop to internet thru USB I am getting 12mbps whereas in LAN I get 100 mbps! Whats the reason behind. And my computer says when connected to internet "limited or no connectivity". I dont know why? Can I get the same speed in USB as I used to get in LAN, and also how to connect the both?

Waiting for someones help.

Thanks.

Dude, if you are using the modem that BSNL provided, then it will connect only with either the USB or the LAN. You cannot have both the USB and the LAN working at the same time. For that, you will need to get a router or buy a switch and connect it to your modem and conect both your laptop and PC to the switch with a LAN cable. If you don't, then you are bound to get the error 'Limited or no Connectivity'

As far as the speeds are concerned. The USB 1.0 transfer is limited to 12Mbps. However, LAN works at 100Mbps. It's something that you can't change. But, you don't need to worry about it. Because, you are really not going to get the speed that you see. You won't get a speed of more than 2Mbps even if you use the USB or the LAN, because that is the speed of your connection to the internet. The speed that you see displayed is the speed between your laptop/PC and the modem and not the actual speed of your line. So, it doesn't make a difference even if it's USB or LAN.

Thanks mate, for the information. I have another question. I have a network card named 22mbps. I have the cd too. I installed the wireless lan driver, pcmcia driver but I cant use the wireless feature. Any solutions for this?

Enable upnp in Azureus
Enable tcp, udp & pnp in Windows Firewall
Enable tcp, udp & upnp on the modemIf this doesn't work Try using ports 53000-63000 instead of the default.


why don't you Enable UnNP in router & azureus ?


Thanx for the replies...

1. upnp is enabled by default in Azureus.
2. I am not having SP2, so windows firewall is not there.. though I have allowed ports for TCP, UDP in zonealarm.. but as disabling ZA also doesnt help, so problem must be in router and not in firewall. modem firewall is also disabled.
3. upnp is already enabled on the modem. How exactly should I enable TCP, UDP on modem.. there is no such option.. if you mean creating virtual server then i have done that already.
4. My port no. is 53552. its in the range u suggested.

I read in another forum that this problem arises due to corrupted router configuration.. what does that mean? How can it be corrected?

[prasad_den]

@Xsreality: You first have to set a static IP to your PC, and then forward ports..

First follow the instructions in this link..
http://portforward.com/networking/static-xp.htm

Then follow this...
http://portforward.com/english/routers/port_forwarding/Huawei/SmartAX-MT880/Azureus.htm

I know you've mentioned that ypu have already tried the instructions in portforward.com.. But still I want to make sure that you have made the first step also. I've been using azureus with no problems afetr I successfully forwarded ports using these instructions.. :D

[xsreality]

I have followed the first instruction also.. and I have a static IP now.. (IP Address is defined and not obtained automatically). My static IP address is 192.168.1.2
But I have not yet successfully been able to forward ports.

If you are trying to use the PCMCIA card with the existing modem, you are not going to see any luck with the wireless because of the simple fact that the modem that you have, I dont' think it's got wireless. So my friends, as an All in one solution to your problem, I would advise you to go for a wireless router.

check my post in the thread http://www.thinkdigit.com/forum/showthread.php?t=29143&page=99 for more on wireless routers.

You dont' need to install the modem if the computer has a LAN port/card. But if he's got USB, you can download the latest drivers for the modem from
http://www.huawei.com (http://www.huawei.com). Copy that onto a CD/pen drive from somewhere else and then take it to your friends place and install it like any other driver.

However, if you are going to use the LAN card, then first reset the modem with the help of the reset button at the back of it. (don't do this if you dont' remeber the username/password). Then just plug the modem up with the LAN cable and go into the LAN TCP/IP properties and set this address manually:
I.P: 192.168.1.2
Subnet: 255.255.255.0
Default Gateway: 192.168.1.1

Once this is done, open IE and go to the address 192.168.1.1 and enter the username: admin and password: password.

Then go in and enable the DHCP server on the modem and put in the dataone username and password and put your TCP/IP settings on the computer back to automatic. You should be able to browse absolutely fine now. :D

Woohoo! Finally upgraded to 2mbps Home1000.... I know this is spamming, but I just felt like it.

[gary4gar]

So HD all the way!
But some People are lucky:P
you on 2mbps and i am on my dial-up:(
No bb for me bad

[xsreality]

Friends, if the router configuration is corrupted, what needs to be done to correct it?

[prasad_den]

@xsreality...: You are making a mistake in the first step.. In the first link, at the end of the page, you have two blanks to fill :
Enter your computer's default gateway:
Enter your computer's current IP Address:

In the default gateway, enter, 192.168.1.1
In the current IP, enter, 192.168.1.2

Now click the Find Static IP addresses button... Most likely you'll get it as 192.168.1.136.. You must use this as the Ip address instead of the 192.168.1.2 you already have..

Then follow the 2nd step of setting the router.. :D

[herc]

hey ppl how do u check ur usage stats in bsnl bb connection...i have 250 home plan and not been able to check it....guess i dunno how???

[prasad_den]

Use datafox extension for firefox, if you use it....!! :D :D

[herc]

no no man i want to check wid the bsnl ppl i already am using datafox...but want to compare it wid theirs???

[prasad_den]

http://10.240.0.195/webLogin.jsp

This is the BSNL site for checking the BB usage.. But I've not visited the site for more than 6 months, ever since I started using datafox..!! Datafox gives proper info.. so I don't think you should worry about it giving improper data.. :D

[herc]

how do u get datafox???i searchd on the plugins page but got nnuthin?

[prasad_den]

No... its not in the plug ins page..
Get it here... http://www.thegoan.com/datafox/

[herc]

i downloaded and installed it but its not working....actually i use the always on connection ...i j ust switch on the modem and connect to the internet....dont hjave to fill in a password or anything....soo datafox also is not working???

[prasad_den]

I use the same way as you have mentioned... But many times the BSNL site is down, that you may not be able to access it either way.. Just try it agaion a day or two later..

Its got wireless man. I bought the modem from BSNL that costs 1800, I think you have heard this modem (Type - II). It has a aerial and an indicator (wireless) too. So cant it be connected? Cant I connect my pc wirelessly with the help of this modem to the internet?

Thank you.

Thank you.

As far as the usage is concerned. You can go to www.dataone.in (http://www.dataone.in). If it's not displaying a page, you will need to check if you are using the correct DNS server address. If all is correct and still no go, then download the DataOne-Bandwidth Checker 2.7 from www.ShaPlus.com (http://www.ShaPlus.com). It's quite a useful software.

As far as the problem with the wireless is concerned. You don't need to install any drivers! If you have installed any, then uninstall it first. Plug the computer to the router directly with a LAN cable and then log onto 192.168.1.1 and make sure wireless is enabled and that it's on both 'b' and 'g' type. Dont' change any default channel settings. And also make a note of the SSID. Once that is done, unplug the LAN cable and plug your wireless card in the computer and Windows will automatically detect it and install the generic drivers.

Once that's done. Go into network connections, right click on the wireless area connection and left click on 'Scan for networks' or 'view list of available networks'. Select the network which has the same name as your router's SSID.

You should get connected with this!
