VCI (Virtual Channel Identifier): This is the label given to an ATM VC to identify it and determine its destination. The VCI is a 16-bit number that is included in the header of an ATM cell.

VPI (Virtual Path Identifier): A virtual path determines the way an ATM cell should be routed. The VPI is an 8-bit (in UNI) or 12-bit (in NNI) number that is included in the header of an ATM cell.

The values for VPI and VCI are 0 and 35 respectively.

Hey guys, is our dataone related to NAT? How can we find out? What difference does it make?

[Charan]

Hi,

Will the dataone connection be active after i shutdown my pc and not turn off my modem? i.e will the modem disconnect the connection???

[QwertyManiac]

yes, the connection will be disconnected...

no USB/Eth link means no connectio itself...

But its better to turn off the modem coz it gets heated...

[drgrudge]

I got my bill yesterday...

And again want to confirm:

1. Never mind if you have connected before 2am and disconnected after 8am (this also includes if you have connected b4 2 and disconnected after 8 ) , you will charged for the extra transfers only.

2. And the accounts manager of my excahnge said that they wont count the transfers till 8:00:59 seconds.. so we get 59 seconds after the limit to disconnect.

And this is the first time that I dint exceed the 1024mb limit

[desertwind]

congrats drgrudge for your disciplined performance.

And thanks once again for the confirmation. The problem here is that Accounts Manager or any other official knows nothing on this matter.

[drgrudge]

My exchange accounts manager guy is an IIT graduate (ME in telecommunication) and I know him well.

[Vyasram]

I recently subscribed for home 500 plan in bsnl , according to it i can d'load brtween 2am-8am free (ie without increasing the data transfer counter). But when i checked my account usage , i found that it has also added the amount of data i transfered between 2am-8am . Will I be charged for that ??

Also i want to know whether i will be charged for the entire session if i download between 2am to 10am (ie for 8 hrs) or will i be charged for just two hours (8am to 10am)

Also please suggest me a software to check my total transfer , with an alarm whenever i exceed the 1GB mark . Also please suggest me a software (preferably freeware) to connect and disconnect a pppoe connection at a sheduled time

[drgrudge]

Vyasram,
All your queries is answered in this thread, just look though the 8 pages for the answeres, I am sure ppl here wont waste time to answer a repeat question (atleast I am not going to )

And open your eyes and look some 2 posts ahead of yours, I have answered your first question and man I closed your other thread at QnA section (next time I will delete it).

[deepgeek2]

You people know something?
If you are unfortunately in patna at the moment don't try to register for dataone thru its website.
Reason?
The patna branch people say -:

1) The service is down
2) They themselves rarely try to fix it.

So much fun on internet while trying to get a connection....

[Retro]

Yaar, We just can't let users search through 8 Long Boring Pages for their answers. Wouldn't hurt us if we posted it again.

Anyway, if Shaplus is not working for any of you, use Du-Meter. Absolutely great tool. Shows Speed, Usage, Projections and much more.

I want to check my dataone plan.where can i go? how can i change one plan to another?

[DreadLord]

STOP USING DATAONE IT IS SICK !I DONT NO ENG. WORK THERE OR LINEMEN??!!?SERVICE IS LOW QUALITY!!!!

[kato]

first of all stop shouting and please if u dont have queries dont post here.

[Retro]

That was absolutely lame there DreadLord. BSNL Broadband is the country's most used broadband which does serve for people of all Budget-Classes. If you have any problems with it, you should tell it in this topic instead of just flaming.

[batsD1]

Thank you desertwind. Do I have to manually set them or is it automatic?

Now shaplus new version 2.1 (from 13.11.05) is working for me. But version 2.0 did't work for me. Although all earlier versions worked well.

i have applied for dataone and brought the modem on my own

they say i need to install it on my own and set it and inform them ,then they will give me id and password
so how do all this need help ????

[QwertyManiac]

Install the drivers and reboot and then type http://192.168.1.1 in IE
(favourably IE, but works in others too)(not sure but most modems have this IP only)

now configure the WAN, LAN, TCP/IP, Connection settings in the modem's page and for unknown settings ask the installer fellow...

[yrana2002]

Well, that IP mentioned here asks for the admin password. how do i get in?
Also, i've recognized that dataone's got its own internal router, by the ipconfig command but how do i find out:
1. The model
2. The manufacturer
3. The Connection type, etc.?
@drgruge
Thanks, i used to sleep after finising off my work at 2:30 to realize that it was upto 10:30 when i got up. I had nigtmares about the bills they would charge as kato had mentioned that extra usage will result in it being charged for sure.!!

[QwertyManiac]

3. the connection type is PPPoE and ADSL is in MultiMode

the password can either be "admin" or the company's name or even the product's name, nothing else, fot me it was admin, i changed it...

[prasad_den]

Hi guys,
I'm using the home 500 plan. I have ZoneAlarm Pro on my system. Everytime I try to look for the service records in the BSNL website, it says Page load Error. When I shutdown ZAPro, the page opens..So what should I change in ZA to allow me see the BSNL website without errors..??

[selva1966]

Open ZA. Go to
Privacy
select site list and add
BSNL website

When/where did kato post like that? kato needs some spankings (as I can't do, I will settle for a warning tag )
Other than me, many others like infra_red_dude, papudada also have confirmed what I said. Also for the past 3 months I have disconnected well after 8am and they might have charged only for the transfers done after 8am.


By the way, I first clicked on the edit post instead of quote post button :roll:

[kato]

hey grudge dont put me on warning i never said they charge for overlapped charges are counted fully anyways i didnt understand wat he said now and wat u quoted it went bouncer

[yrana2002]

So, its like when i enable ' REMOVE mixed usage' & 'free usage' options, the left out display is what is counted isn't it? Please tell me that is true, or else i'm gona go for a hammering.

Also guys, help me out, i went to the router site & enabled Upnp(did i do a wise thing?) & started Bitcomet. Heres' my log:
Windows XP UPnP Status: Found SmartAX MT882 [Huawei] [http://www.huawei.com/]
