Broadband disconnection

[webgenius]

I have a dataone broadband connection. When I first switch on my modem, after about 5 minutes, connection seems sluggish and gets disconnected for 5-10 seconds. It happens every time. How can I overcome this?

[shashank4u]

it happens..sometimes
to make life easy do one thing..to restart thru software
type
192.168.1.1 in yr browser..
then it ll ask pass and name.
name =admin
pass=admin
or name =admin
pass=password..
these r defalut passwords and usernames..
then search for reboot modem.and click it..
however sometimes it not open up ..so u have
restart modem physically..
hope it helps

like it then rep it.

Nice tip I'll recommend it to one of my friends who has a similar problem...if it works definatelly repping you.

i dont think dis is any modem problem
it may be server problem from bsnl part go call bsnl helpline and ask dem

[shashank4u]

i m using airtel it even happens to me..and sometimes it is a modem prob
and sometime it is server prob..the only thing we can do ..is
as a first measure:
1)restart the modem or router..or repairing connection.
2)think something else like calling helpdesk .

Are you using USB Modem ?? USB Modems are subject more problems than Ethernet

I'm using ethernet for broadband.
During the initial moments, connection seems sluggish. Once it restarts, everything works normal then.

This process will always put ur connection active and live
so u never face problem of disconnection
Follow these steps

1. Press Window key+R
2. In Run Prompt Type 'notepad'
3. type ping -t <DNS Server>
4. Press Ctrl+S
5. In file Name Dialog Box write Net.bat(or anything but extension should be .bat) also select File Type as All(*.*)
6.Now u r done when u connect ur net after connection just run this file

To know whats ur DNS server

Type ipconfig/all on command prompt

It keeps pinging the dns server continuously. I'll lose a lot of bandwidth if I do that.

it pings only 32bytes of data how much band width u lose there buddyy

i think its negotiable

also it keeps ur connection alive

even if u r not working on net

[shashank4u]

r u having limited download connection..
but yr prob is not a prob it happens with everybody..sometimes
if this prob occurs very frequenlty then there is a prob..with
the modem change it...
or
do as per my first post..

[webgenius]

well, it gets disconnected about 5 minutes after connecting and connects back again. It happens the first time i switch on the modem.

[piyush gupta]

just try -t(infinite) pinging for continuous connecction

i have BSNL Broadband with USB Modem and i m curently using it

32 bytes per second => 2KB per minute => 120KB per hour

Not a lot of bandwidth wastage

dude, just log in to the "Modem Settings" Page (thru IE, Opera...) & goto the "ADSL Settings" under "Advanced" & see what "ADSL Modulation" you are using.

If its "G-lite" then change it to ADSL 2+. (or try experimenting with other modes)

for many ppl the G-lite works perfectly, but for me when i changed from ADSL2+ to G-Lite i faced exactly the same problem as you do.

I'm using Multimode. Previously I was using ADSL2+. But back then my speeds were very low. After changing to MULTIMODE, my speed has increased.

Buddy why not go for Unlimted 900+

see u r paying

500+180 monthly rent

680 and very much thinking about bandwidth usage

go for 900+
charges
900 includes 180 monthly rent

cheers

I got dataone Home 500 connxn;i feel the T1.413 is the best for me.also i updated the firmware(pls dont ask me!) to the one Jul 6 2005.yes I have Huawei SmartAX MT880 Modem
btw i get with T1.413 settings or what: 227KB/s @ max :/

web dude , so has this problem cropped up just now or after when you changed the modulation mode.

IMO just experiment with G-lite mode,.

& c'mon dude you're getting atleast 100+KBps then why do you bother about speed loss

This problem has surfaced after the broadband outage in Bangalore for two days. Before that, everything was normal. So I think it has got to be a problem with their server.

hmm, i havent faced any problem like this.

i'm near "Vasnath Nagar" (Cunningham Road).

why dont you try other modes, like "praka" has T1 mode enabled.

Hmmm...That sounds reasonable. I'll give the other nodes a try today night.
