Can somebody tell me how can I have BSNL connected as "Always On" ? I want it such that whenever I start my PC, BSNL should be connected already and I dont have to connect it manually. I just want that as soon as the PC loads windows, I can surf instantly. Is this possible ? I heard it was. Someone knowing how to do it, please post here.

Thanks.

You can do that by setting up the modem to connect automatically by itself rather than you needing to click on the connection icon to connect. Please let me know the model no. of the modem you have so that I can give you the appropiate instructions.

I am using BSNL's modem one a rental basis, and the day before yesterday, the modem's power adapter gave up on me! It refused to turn on the modem.

Now, what's the first thing you would think? Yes, take the thing and run to your telephone exchange to get it replaced because it's their modem and you still have warranty because you are still paying for it. That is what I also thought but sadly, that's where things took a turn for the bad.

As soon as the I took the modem and the adapter to the exchange, the officer in-charge plugged the modem with another adapter and voila! It turned on which again confirmed that the adapter I had was faulty. Now, you would think they are going to replace it for you. Atleast that's what I thought! But the officer told me that they don't have any stock and that there were a lot of adapters that were sent to Gujrat to get repaired, and she told me as soon as those adapter come, she'll give me one. And guess how long that is going to take? 3 months!!! The officer in-charge is asking me to wait for 3 months without a broadband connection!! Hell, I can't stay 3 hours without it!! It ticked me off, and I asked her if me buying another adapter would void the modem warranty to which she replied she wouldn't recommend me to do that, but if I'm willing, I can go get one.

Now, you would think, ok, hell with the replacement, I'll just go get a new adapter for 150~200 bucks. Again, atleast that's what I thought and voila, I was wrong again!! I searched my entire town in all the electrictronics shops for a replacement adapter, and hell, they ain't got one of the similar type!! I even went to the nearest city and no one has it!!

Now, you would think that not getting one is impossible!! but trust me, the adapter that the modem needs is not the one you would normally find in electronics shops. The adapter the modem uses is a 9V AC 1000mA. First of all, you don't get an AC to AC adapter normally in electronic shops. You can find a million varieties of AC to DC adapters. And on top of that, this adapter need 1000mA of power! Even if you found and AC to AC adapter, they aren't anymore powerful than 500mA. You just can't find one!! Even if you found one, it is not easily accessible! Finally I ran out of choice and the only option was to repair the bloody thing!! And thankfully one of the shop keepers directed me to a very remote location, you can't even call that place a town, on going there, there is this one place where a couple of electronic geeks repair anything possible! And thankfully once again, they promised to repair my adapter but they said it would take 3 days!! I begged them and tried to make them understand the importance of the adapter and finally agreed to repair it within a day for 110 bucks!

So, I went again to the remote place today and finally got the adapter back and got online and I'm writing this post!

The moral of the story is: DON"T GET A BSNL MODEM!! Looking back at my posts, I certainly did support the modems they supply because they are considerably good quality but lack of support and BSNL's ignorance has promted me to take an alternative route!! So, when you get a modem/router make sure the accessories are easily available in the market no matter which brand it is! I've even told the guy to make me another adapter just in case this one gives up again! Atleast it's just a matter of 110bucks than 3 days or 3 months without a connection to the outside world!!:D

Any 9V 1000 ma adapter is not such a big deal, whether AC or DC. If AC, it is only a matter of a 9V 1000 ma step down transformer, wires and the pin.

It's quite easy to say that, and myself being an electronic & electrical hobbyist understand the point that you are trying to make. But just take a step back at walk the path again but this time in the form of a layman who knows nothing about these things. How do you think they are going to react?

The reason I got it fixed in the first place is because I knew it could be fixed and I knew the procedure that involves in fixing it and I knew who could do it at the earliest. Otherwise, why do you think I went in search of that shop? It's just because I didn't have the accessories to fix it myself and knew it could be done elsewhere.

But that's not the case with everyone. The point that I tried to make was that it is not something that is easily accessible unlike primary AC and secondary DC adapters available commercially.:(

Any local technician anywhere in India will do it for you and it won't take much time or cost.

But regarding the customer care of BSNL, I agree.

No man you are right. But in my town I got 2 adapters defected due to high voltage and they replaced it twice. For the 2nd adapter replacement they dint had any spare adapter and adviced me to purchase an adapter from market and that wouldn't void my warranty. I purchased an adapter according to the voltage specifications (9v or 12v, I dont remember) and used for 2 months, and after that they gave me another adapter and its working fine. Try to use a voltage stabilizer for using ur pc and modem adapter. Take out a common power output from ur voltage stabilizer and connect ur UPS to it and plugin ur adapter into it, that will save ur adapter for rest of ur life. I am doing so and I havent faced any problems from that time.

Thank you.

Hello,

I want connect my BSNL modem (Quidway WA 1003A) via Bluetooth. I have tried number of times, but dint got it working. I asked the BSNL people that whether I have the wireless facility in my modem or the aerial and wireless indicator are just in the modem to add a bit beauty to it? They answered me "no your modem has this facility and you connect wirelessly with the help of Bluetooth, all you need is a Bluetooth Dongle". Now can anybody tell me how I can make my connection working between the Bluetooth Dongle and the modem, so that I can connect to net without wires also.

Help needed, please.

Listen mate, the wireless you are referring to is of 2 types. One is Wi-Fi and the other bluetooth. The modem you have has Wi-Fi while your USB dongle supports bluetooth. Both of them are different technologies and cannot connect with each other. So, you can't try connecting a bluetooth device to another device that only supports Wi-Fi. So, all you need to do is just get a wireless LAN card for you PC and you should be able to connect wirelessly. If you have a laptop, just check the configuration to see it alredy has a wireless LAN card(WLAN).

Dude, it's better you invest in a LAN card, just about 250~350 bucks... no hassles of driver installation/reinstallation. Power problems, speed problems and so on.

I would certainly say it's worth having a LAN card than you going through all the other hassles.

Unfortunately although they do, it's not public and it's going to get charged on the phone number on which the original id has been registered and not from which you are using it.

Nope they wont! and if you ask BSNL for the usage details, they will ask you to use the dataone website to check the details where you wouldn't find any telephone no. If you think someone else is using your login details, then change your password immediately, however, if your usage is showing higher in your bill than what it shows on the dataone website, then someone else's id is clipped wrongly to your no. You need to give a complaint where they will investigate and see if any other id is being wrongly billed on your no.

First of all, lot on to your modem interface and then make sure your downlink speed is 2048Kbps. If not, then there might be noise on the line which is resulting in lower synchronisation and hence lower throughput. So, get your line checked in that case. However, if it is still the same, do the next step.

Next, run the speedtest from BSNL's website and see what speeds they tell you. Here's the link: www.dataone.in (http://www.dataone.in) Go there and click on speed test.

If you see similar speeds, first of all, run a complete anti-virus and a spyware scan and make sure everything is clean. Then make sure no other programs using the internet are running, except for essential system utilities. And then run the speed test again. If it's still the same, I'm afraid nothing much you can do about it. Try getting in touch with your local telephone exchange. I'm sure they won't be of help at all. But miracles happen!!

BSNL, Calcutta Telephones Free Broadband Speed Checker.


Testing is done with 128 KB of Sample Data. Formula To calculate your Bandwidth=(128*8 Kbits/(endtime - starttime) sec

Your current bandwidth reading is:

1.60 Mbps

which means you can download at 204.35 KB/sec. from www.calcuttatelephones.com (http://www.calcuttatelephones.com) server located at Territa Bazar, Kolkata.
^^this is my speed upto 8-9 PM.while morning and night speeds are around 217-230 KB/Sec.am on home 500.after monsoon started on June here(Kerala) speeds are like this.I must say that earlier am getting a good speed of 217KB/sec irrespective of time.

I'm not sure about the particular modem you have but if it has been manufactured in the last 3-4 years then it will. All new routers lan cards have something called 'Auto-sensing', which means, it can figure out by itself whether you are using a crossover or a straight through cable and adjust to work accordingly.

So, I guess you should have a USB on the computer as well, in that case, do you have the installation CD with you? If you do, just put the CD in and go through the default installation options and once it's installed, plug in your modem onto the computer. Then make sure the USB, power and link light on the modem are 'ON'. Please do this and let us know.

I was also having Win 98 only when I subscribed Dataone about 2 years back and it was like hell. As suggested by the BSNL engineer, I purchased an OEM pack of Win XP Home for about Rs.3.5K. Not only installation and usage of Dataone became easier, all other problems associated with win 98 disappeared. Since then, far I have been wondering why I din't upgrade to XP for years. Of course prior to XP I had used only pirated SWfor about 9 years.

Dude, regardless of whether it's a home 250, 500 or 3300, all these plans run on the same bandwidth. Upto 256Kbps for upload and Upto 2Mbps for download.

If you are looking for more upload, then I would suggest you try going with a local ISP where you can get upto 512Kbps upload.

With regards to the upload, I was wrong in the difference of plans. However, although the Home3300 shows a dedicated 2Mbps line you should understand that you are never going to get an upload of 2Mbps for the simple fact that the technology is ADSL and upload and download won't be same. I expect to see an upload of anywhere between 512Kbps to 1Mbps. Not more than that!!

Thanks praka, however, I am well aware of these settings and I can assure you that the best stability to speed works on the normal G.dmt that is supported by BSNL. Changing the setting to one which conflicts with the server settings at your ISP may result in instability/packet loss/higher responce times/varying speeds.

So, it is always advised to keep them at your default ISP setting which is G.dmt. Besides, regardless of what setting you change it to, if you come to the main page of your modem, you can see that it has picked up the line default which is G.dmt.

Honestly praka, the SNR has nothing to do with the setting on your modem. Before I start, you should know that I am a support engineer working for a UK ISP, so you can take my word for it. Refer to my previous posts on the same thread.

Now, regarding the SNR margin, firstly it stands for 'Signal to Noise Ratio'. This is a parameter which helps in identifying how strong your signal is. As SNR is defined, it's the ratio of signal that is reaching your modem with regards to the Noise on the line and this is totally controlled by the ISP itself.

If you have high levels of static Noise on the line, you would need a higher SNR margin set on your line but at the same time, higher the SNR, the lesser the bandwidth will end up being. There is an ideal range in which the SNR works, somewhere between 12~45dB. If the SNR seems to go to abnormally high values, then you would end up getting less that 2Mbps at the same time it can't be too low as the synch will end up getting dropped every minute due to the noise on the line.

So, there is a very small bracket in which the ISP handles this. For example: In the UK, if a customer is complaining about very frequent disconnections, then after the basic checks show no problem, we go ahead and raise the SNR margin making sure that it doesn't affect the customer's synchronisation speeds.

So, honesly, SNR might keep varying +/-5 every time your modem makes a connection depending on the noise on the line. And certainly that has nothing to do with the settings on your modem.

Hope you get my point.;)

What do the figures mean?

Let's look at some typical figures, and here I will use the ones shown by my own equipment a D-link DSL-504 Router using 512K 50:1 ADSL.

These are as follows:

* Attenuation Downstream: 28dB. This means I am receiving just under 1/500th of the signal sent from the exchange.

* Attenuation Upstream: 31dB. This means the Exchange is receiving just less than 1/1000th of the signal sent from my modem.

* SNR: 19dB. SNR stands for Signal to Noise Ratio and is basically the difference between the level of the signal being received compared with the natural noise level on the line.

Here, the higher the figure the better. In my case 19dB means that the signal I am receiving is almost 100 times stronger than the noise level.

Noise on your line is caused by many things. Some examples are other wires in the cable running alongside your wires, interference from power cables, radio signals, higher than normal resistance joints in the telephone wires and damp in the wires or cables. see below link:

http://usertools.plus.net/tutorials/id/12

I never said you were wrong.. the link you gave does add up to what I said which is that the settings have really nothing to do with SNR. It keeps varying. It could be decieving as you might see a better SNR when you change a setting but that is only because SNR keeps varying. And every time you change a modulation setting on your modem, it has to resynchronise with te exchange leading to a different SNR value. Hence you see a different SNR when you change the modulation setting and very decievingly enough we unfortunately come to the conclusion that the setting is which changed the SNR.

One more thing that I should say is that, the ADSL we all use is capable of doing above 12Mbps. It has only been limited to 2Mbps and the SNR plays a very big role in it. If you need higher speeds the SNR has to reduced quite considerably comparing a 1or 2Mbps line. For example: on an 8Mbps line, the SNR should ideally be aroun 9~12dB. Like I mentioned before, higher SNR doesn't always mean good. If the SNR is increased too much by the ISP, you might see a slower connection but ofcourse a more stable one!!:D

Dude, upload for home250 and 500 was not 64Kbps, it was 256Kbs and now it has increased. As of now, as mentioned earlier I am getting an upload of 864Kbps on home 500. You can see anywhere between 512Kbps~1Mbps upload on the Home3300.

256 has never been the upload speed in plan 250, forget about getting 864Kbps. Anyways, theres no point in fighting about it.

Hello..

I m a Dataone user under "Plan Home-250, 256Kbps"... 1GB is the limit...
I exceed my surfing last month (july) upto 1.325GB.. But the 3 moths before this, i haven crossed even 800.. I just wanted to know,if i ll be needing to
pay the extra charge,or will they take the last 2 months into consideration? any carry forwards of the last 2 months???? i was told so, by friend that they have mentioned like that,in the registration form.

Dude, it's not about fighting, it's plain simple fact that the base upload speeds was 256kbps for Home250 whether you like it or not and now they have increased the upload bandwidth to 864Kbps! This is plain simple fact! You might be asking how do I know? Because I was using Home250 till 2 months back and now on Home500.

For the sake of not arguing anymore, please provide sources or any piece of relevant info showing that it was not 256Kbps for upload and not 864 now.

Both BSNL and Airtel test show around 1.5~1.8Mbps but tried on speedtest.net and kbps.co.uk, the international transfer rates seem to be suffering anywhere between 0.4~1Mbps.

hey my speed is very slow....most of dierct lnks run at 30-60kbps range.
The main problems are torrents which run from anyting between 0-20 kbps for majoity of the download time(seeds more than 2000),after 7 am torrent speeds shoot up to 60-100 kbps sometimes for some files while sometimes by 6 oclock the connection is lost.

Also i lose capability to use http(browse) after a few minutes.So i need to restart modem to get it back(though downloads and gtalk continues to have connection for few more minutes).Yahoo loses connection before any other site...what is going on with my connection?Is it a network problem,wiring disorder or modem complaint????

I use plan 500 frm the time bsnl started giving broadband service(same modem).....please help!!

If u have a low bandwidth then these are the two main causes of it-

2)Or there are two many users online(check at night 1:00am to see if bandwidth has increased)

First of all BSNL doesn't cap anyone's bandwidth. It depends on a million other factors, just go back on the same thread and refer the post I have put up explaining the reason for different bandwidths.

Secondly, I did the test from kerala and not bangalore:grin:

underground cable has nothing to do with speed.If there is any problem in underground wire..than either your internet will not work or you will face problem of frequent disconnection.

I have to disagree with you here. Although you are right about the frequent disconnection part, you are wrong about the part that the underground cable isn't going to cause a problem.

Any problem with anything in between your modem and the server you are accessing will lead to speed problems whether it is your underground cable or server problems. Don't forget the part about SNR margins.;)

Speeds never really depend on the modem unless you are using incompatible technologies. So, there is no difference in speed between the modem that BSNL offers. It's just there for the additional option on the modem/router like more ethernet ports or Wi-Fi

Sorry friend..I also dont agree with you.High SNR(signal to noise ratio)...is required to maintain steady speed. Below are factors for low SNR
1) Longer line.....

2)Speed of your internet connection.High speed connection ..lower SNR than on low speed connection on same line.

3)Hot weather and Wet weather on a connection somewhere could cause dampness and deteriorate the signal. This can be other reason for low SNR.

But when it comes to underground...these factors are negeligible.And if there is any cut in wire..than internet will not work totally.

I m facing a strange prb. n m totally confused..

I recently took a BSNL Broadband Conn. under Home 500 plan. My modem wil b taking andr 4-5 days to arrive. So rite now I m using my frnds modem - DLINK 502T ADSL.

I got my username n passwrd from BSNL. So after connecting my frnds modem to my laptop, I didnt hav to do nething n Internet started immediately. No username or passwrd was required. My frnd n me hav diff. phone nos, userid n passwrd. Everytime I hav to just connect d modem to my laptop n net starts immediately.

My service record (with my userid n passwrd) at "http://10.240.43.216/webLogin.jsp" shows no usage but a service request of "Home 500 Plan - upto 2mbps".

So my query is -

1. How do I confirm if my frnds plan hasnt changed? (earlier he was on UL900) (I think I accidently mite hav changed his plan or smthng)
2. Whose account is getting charged?


PS: I dont want to change modem settings (192.168.1.1) but jst want my queries 2 b answered.

its yours friends's account you are using, he will be charged for it:D


for plan change there no way you can change your plan from portal itself, for that you have to submit a application to BSNL. You can try to download some from internet say a 5mb file 7 see whether it is counted as free download or a paid one.

if he is on 900UL then it will be counted as free otherwise it will be counted as paid d/l

Go into the WAN configuration and just try recreating the account by putting in your broadband username and password. Rest of the settings seems to be fine. If it still doesn't work, you will need to contact your BSNL office to report the problem

^^ Yes, you are right, didn't notice that. I'm still working with 0,38 in the UK, so overlooked that.. sorry..

But like I mentioned before, seems like the entire modem has been reset unless you are not telling us that you pressed the reset button:D So, you'll need to reconfigure it.

hi ppl,
bsnl bangalore has really gone mad, yesterday i got the bill for dataone it says i need to pay Rs.7006. I got my brroad band connection on March'07 aunder 250 plan on the month of may i wrote an application for change of plan from home-250 to home-500. BSNL staff said dat ur plan will change from the month of June'07 as usual they cannot change the plan in between any month. So from the month of June i started using night unlimited traffic even though noticing there was no change of plan in my account, hence i got the confirmation from the bsnl staff via telephone (I doubly confirmed from them that there was a change of plan in bsnl server) and in the month of July'07 i received a bill of Rs.3187 i went to the bsnl regional office to sort it out actually i had not even downloaded not even 2GB(2.5GB is the maximum free usage) and it sorted out in the month of July'07 itself and got a new rectified bill and in yesterdays bill it was mentioned that i need to pay again for the month april, June . Also they have chaeged me twice i.e, for the month of june the amount has repeated twice hence the bill amount has gone upto Rs.7006

Isn't this a real madness.................
please post ur opinions on this

The only way you can not pay for the landline and use broadband is with the Home900 plan.. where you don't have to pay any rentals.. as for all other connections, you have to pay telephone rentels.. or what you could do is.. take a connection and make your connection only incoming with no outgoin.. you might still be charged a bit for it.. but lesser..

As far as the exact payments are concerned, please refer BSNL's website at www.bsnl.in (http://www.bsnl.in) You can't find more details that what is there.. so refer the website first..

From this afternoon dataone downstream and upstream speeds have been abysmally slow in Bangalore.
URL: http://myspeed.visualware.com/speedtest/speedtestjs.html (http://myspeed.visualware.com/speedtest/speedtestjs.html)
When: Wed Aug 15 22:11:37 IST 2007
Download: 36,192 bps
Upload: 19,144 bps
QOS: 3%
RTT: 2 ms
MaxPause: 4267 ms
Test #: NA
That is 36Kbps/19Kbps as against 2048Kbps/512Kbps.
This is now happening too frequently. Very poor service by dataone. With such low upload speeds one cannot enter and execute any online activity like booking railway tickets or online banking transactions and now dataone is talking of IPTV. May God save those taking IPTV service!

this is probelm from BSNl side.you cant do anything in this.Just make sure..you have not done any modification in the wiring.And your spliter is working fine.

Just try surfing the net directly......remove spliter, and phone.Connect your modem directly to the BSNL line.
