Negative. I always change my username/password in my modem twice a day. (I'm using two accounts with one modem).

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?

Man I only hope u were right
But you are not
Since Bsnl uses ADSL
usernames and passwords can be used anywhere
Suppose you have a 256 kbps connection on ur telephone
but u can still can use a 512 kbps connection

Tough luck

Most probably you are correct but in our place things seem different. Eg., everywhere people seem to have always on connection but we have to dial up and wait for it to get connected to BB. Of course, there is no irritating tones like in the good old Dial Up.

Dude the password and username can be chenged in ur modem its very easy just type 192.168.1.1 type admin for username and password both and then go to WAN settings there u can see ur username and password of dataone just change it there. But remember not to fiddle with other settings too much or u might screw up (i did some fiddling after Qwertymaniac told me how to do it but luckily nothing went wrong) but DONT FIDDLE WITH ANY OTHER SETTINGS

Lot of thanks for the info.
The stupid BSNL engineers are reluctant to tell us such things even if they know.

When I had applied for BSNL Broad Band service, I got two IDs to log in,
One on Phone and One through letter...
To my surprise both worked and when I went to the BSNL Office they told me just to ignore one ID.
How can BSNL be such an idiot...???

NO

[abhijit_reddevil]

Hi, I don't know whether this has been discussed before. I had plan 250 and I had recently applied for plan 500. How to know that this has been activated?

Secondly if I had applied on the 4th of this month for the same, will I be charged for the usage upto the 3rd for plan 250 as well?

Thank you in advance.

Thank you in advance.

The right-most column of my service records says "Traffic(KB)(excluding night unlimited[For HOME 500/1000/1800/3300 plan only])" which was not shown previously when I was using plan 250.

Does this mean that the Home plan 500 has been activated?

Please reply soon.

[Darthvader]

Yes Coz Night Unlimited is available from plan 500 upwards. You are in luck

Hey , I and my friend always exchange our ids in case of any need, for example, if my download limit is full or the other way.
And also I have another friend who doesnot use her id much , so we often use her id also...but with her concern only...everytime everything works smoothly...no problem regarding id and password...and there is nothing that user id and password are set in modem, u r free to change your password as much as possible and you can change your id by requesting to BSNL and for that you dont need to bring your modem to them...

If you have some basic knowledge on Networking, refer to the following thread. That one is for gnu/Linux, But can be done on Windows too.

If somebody gives the specific procedure for Win XP, it will be useful to many.

[yrana2002]

Have you been using Pure Bridged or PPPoE? (No idea)?
Do you use a username & password to dial in everytime?
If yes, then reply or if this also doesnt give you the assurity,

1. Type 192.168.1.1 in address bar of your browser.

2. Type admin in both username & password(default)

3. In the page that opens, scroll down to the table heading as "Wan Channel" and see WAN type in the first entry there, which will be your type of connection.

[go4saket]

Mine is also great! Not less than 30 KBPS...
