I wanted to ask, how can we know which service a user has registered for by knowing his account pass, & user? Service includes which package he has taken.
I looked in Shaplus but it only shows 256Kbps. Now that can be for many packages.

lol I dont bother abt the time/clock of the BSNL servers, I just start my torrents at 2 am sharp (my watch time ) it works out to be 1:55 am BSNL server time. But it's good in a way that i will be leeching at 100mb/hr by the time it's 2 am with the BSNL servers
So daily I start at 1:55 and disconenct at 7:57-58 am.

You can see check the time, but connecting once and then checking up with the logs in the BSNL site or using shaplus.

Hey guys.
Now I also joined the broadband users club and without spending a penny.
How?
Well , today I got a call from BSNL and they told me to try their Dataone for two months absolutely free of cost.
I jumped up to the occasion and got it.
Now , the external ADSL modem is installed and I m enjoying the Broadband free of cost.
Isnt that gr8.
I m loving it, couldnt ask for more.
Can anyone tell me what will be the cost of this modem if I wanted to purchase it from market , in case I decided to keep it after trial .

I have taken the free BB offer from BSNL and is currently enjoying 2 months of free Broadband usage, now that my permissible limit is 400MB I always check it regularly.Now that there has been some unneccessary spikes in usage about 30-40MB and I changed the password immediately,

On the 29th I was outside home till 11pm and on the 30th when I checked it shows there has been a 190MB download on 29th from 9pm-2am

I was so shocked with this !!!!!!!! Man now I have to pay for the whole lot @1.4 rupee per Mb accounting to about Rs 280 whereas I haven't accessed the net then.

Man is this the service level of BSNL ????????

What to do now ?????

Help me guys,please

[desertwind]

Complain it to the officials quoting the time. They may be able to track the telephone no which the account has been accessed.

go to www.dataone.in and log in the a/c admin site. now click on 'USER INFO" tab on your left. it will show the details of the plan taken and date of creation.

Well, i did check in there, but the only thing it shows is "Postpaid". Now, there can be a lot of references with that. How do i know which plan is it? I know its got 256kbps by information from Shaplus.

dont worry dude .. me and a couple of my frnds also faced this prob 2 mnths back .. there was a prob wid the bsnl server and it showed logs of usage around 5.5 hours behind. jst give a letter to the concerned authorities in ur area and keep a stamped copy for urself. so this will make u safe frm extra billing as u would have already informed them about the prob,

i dont think its a case of logs arrivin off time
as the time i really use is shown correctly
so there is a log which is shown when i am not usin or someone else is usin on my a/c

any further ideas folks

[~Phenom~]

thanx mohit but I was thinking is it safe to give our passwords to such third party softwares ???

[yrana2002]

Oh yes, it is. Just configure Shaplus from Windows Firewall or any other firewall so that it connects to only the Bsnl site and not to anything else.
Search this thread 4-6 pages back to see how to do it.

[go4saket]

How do we configure shaplus with ZoneAlarm. What are the options we need to set for it so that it connects just with the BSNL server and nothing else?

[adi87]

DATA ONE has got me into serious trouble.......... I just got an account 2 days back.Also the password was provided.But when i checked my account use it showed that i alreadily had downloaded 1.61GB of software ( which i did not). ANd my plan was of 400MB ( 256 kbps free for 2 months.)So as per their rules will i have to pay 1.4 Rs. for (1.61X1024)-400 MB..((((which will drain my pocket.))))???? If i havent used i.e the account wasnt accessed from my telephone , would I be still charged?????? Please tell as i may have to file a complaint at the office

[Darthvader]

Yes Unfortunately Someone has used up ur account
And hence u will be charged
as the telephone no. does not matter

[adi87]

But this s***t implies that anyone can access anyone's account if they know the user name and the password.....adn the account bearer only will be charged.......&^#%(%$(# *
Is this the height of stupidity by BSNL ??????

[go4saket]

What can BSNL do about it... Cant you check anyone's email account if you know their username and password. A password is assigned to for for the basic reason that you can keep your account confined to yourself. So keep changing your password.

One thing what BSNL can do is assign the username and password to a particular phone number and do something that that username cannot be accessed by anyother phone number, but then this also has its one merits and demerits...

[adi87]

I was refering to the stupidity of not assigning account unique to a phone no.
As i think taht SIFY has done -------
the account is unique to the LAN Card.!!!!!

[Darthvader]

U better change ur password ( if u hab not already ) to restrict further problems

[AnilShenoy]

Can I get DataOne connection for my telephone connection, which is under SULABH PLAN ?

Please help asap.

thanks

[desertwind]

Yes, the telephone plans doesn't matter.

This is exactly what the BSNL engineer told me, ie. nobody can access my account and the username and password are set in the modem. (may be in the firmware) Anyway if I change my password, then I can't login and have to take the modem to their office. I check my usage often and so far it has not been more than expected.

BTW I am repeating a question ((never answered) hoping that I am not violating rules. Why I am charged Rs.166/- every month as ARDR instalment for BB? Any of you being charged like that?
