Try resetting the router.

[Ramakrishnan]

First of all you should set your PC's ip as 192.168.1.x where x can be any number

[sagargv]

ya . i've set pc's ip as 192.168.1.33 . . .

ok . i'll try resetting router.

nope. resetting dint help ..

[akshaykapoor_3]

First f al reset your modem and then

Go to your LAN netwrk connection properties


and enter these details :-

I.P Address :- 192.168.1.x
Subnet mask :- 255.255.255.0
Default gateway:- 192.168.1.1

Preffered DNS Server :- 61.1.96.69
Alternate DNS Server :- 61.1.96.71


Now go to your BSNL connection proeprties

and check "Obtain an ip address automatically"
In DNS server details enter the same as above..

now try opening ur modem config page..

Hope that helps

LAN network connection and bsnl connection ??

i have only LAN in network connections.

[ravi_9793]

start-->> type cmd and press enter.
See what is default IP of the connection.

Now open , IE, and enter that default IP.
you will asked username and password of that modem. Default all BSNL modem have :
username-->> admin
password-->> admin


If it works..than it is OK..else someone has changed your modem password.In that case, solution is Reset your modem.


But you will have to configure your modem again..like username, password for BSNL BB and others.

doesnt look like default ip has changed

[sumeet singh]

see if there is any firewall in your computer

or you can also try restarting the computer in "Safe Mode With Networking".. that will automatically disable all your third party software.....

then also.. as per ur reply... the DNS servers are incorrect.. that wont play any role in ur opening the router page however that will not alow u to go online..

rectify that in LAN properties..

and also see if u are able to ping 192.168.1.1
command is: in command promt type: ping 192.168.1.1

see if u are getting replies...

@sagargv, I had experienced a similar problem sometime back.Here goes the story.
I had borrowed my friend's modem to check and confirm my Netgear modem is not the cause for my Dataone woes.All the network settings were configured correctly in the modem and I only had to change the user id and password in the modem to make it work on my line. I had the same broadband problems with this modem also - inconsistent speeds most of the time and even worse than than a dialup connection.After confirming that my modem was not at fault and it was a problem on the BSNL side, I put back my friend's user id and password in the modem , returned the modem to my friend , connected it to his computer and the problem surfaced. The modem will establish sync but no website will open and IE almost always froze. I was unable to even type 192.168.1.1 most of the time and when I did succeed it will not open.I was in a fix.
I reset the modem and put all the network settings in Windows except the User Id and password and tried. The same problem. I was still not able to open 192.168.1.1.
I was puzzled. I had no time to troubleshoot. I was sure that all the settings were right in Windows and the modem was configured correctly ( I brought back the modem to my computer and reconfigured the modem settings after the reset)

Cutting short any troubleshooting process, I restored his system using an image taken two months back, entered all the network settings in Windows ( he is still using Windows ME) and voila everything worked fine.I was able to access 192.168.1.1, IE was not freezing and was opening all the sites and I was relieved.

My friend confided he had experienced abysmal speeds and IE freezing many times before too and he never suspected any problem with his PC.It is all working fine now as never before in the immediate past.

And so what was the problem? I presume that his computer was inflicted by some malware which prevented the normal operation like opening 192.168.1.1 and other websites. It had nothing to do with the modem settings or network setting in Windows.

I always advise all my friends to back up their system when it is working good so that problems of this nature can be resolved in a jiffy instead of breaking one's head trying to troubleshoot and spend enormous time trying to seek the root cause and eliminating it.

Hope you get the moral of the story. Good luck.

^^ thanks . but i'm able to open ALL websites perfectly fine and download via torrents and forward port . .i get consistent speed of around 29 kBps .

neway , i tried windows restore . it dint help .. furthermore i dont think its OS problem coz i tried both in xp and vista . i dont usually use vista . . .about 20 days back i had operated vista and i remember accessing 192.168.1.1 . .after that i hadnt operated in vista . wen i got this problem in xp , i went to vista to check it and same problem there too . .so i dont think its OS problem .. .but neway , i'll keep ur point in mind. i'll take this modem to my frends house and check it.


i havent tried safe mode with networking .. i'll see.

wen i triend pining . this is wat i got .
