Bsnl broadband service

Here is my Step-By-Step guide to configuring a Wi-Fi network with BSNL DataOne. Though many wireless routers claim that it is a no-brainer setup to configure the wireless network, I found it to be not as easy as it looks to be. For example, NetGear comes with a wizard that never works with BSNL broadband connected via HUAWEI SmartAX 880. For those of you desperate to take your BSNL DataOne broadband wireless, follow these steps. It took me more than 2 days to figure and come out with these configuration details. bsnl broadband service Before I start, let me share what I have with this bsnl broadband connection: 1)BSNL DataOne 256Kbps connection. 2)HUAWEI SmartAX MT880 (The modem supplied by BSNL). 3) (configuring netgear dg632 for BSNL)NetGear WGR614v5 bsnl broadband service There are 2 steps to configuring your wireless network.

It never worked for me. Always connect it to one of the 4 ports excluding the designated Internet port. IP Addresses can be anything of your choice. But it is a good idea to follow the 192.168.x.x convention If you get lost any time, feel free to reset the configuration by poking a pin into the reset slot on the modem and the router. Don't compromise on the security. Always enable WPA and save your key. Don't let your friendly neighbors ride on your network!

I have a d-link modem at my house in my hometown with which my pc is always connected to the net. but here I have to DIAL every time i want access.Not going through. I have tried it in two ways 1. Connected to internet through wired connection and then tried to use the wireless connection to browse. 2. Initiate the connection through wireless mode. In bothcases, my laptops show that they are connected to the wireless network, but cannot browse (if internet connection is already alive) or cannot open the connection in case 2. Would appreciate if you can provide detailed list of the settings (both on your computer and the HUAWEI WA1003A). Also, one other confusing thing is the TCP/IP properties of the wired LAN adapter and the wireless LAN adapter.Main Question: I have the Huawei modem (Type II) wireless Ethernet and USB that BSNL gives. I want to use this with Airtel, is that possible? If yes, how? History: (if interested) I am switching from BSNL to Airtel becasue BSNL has not shifted my connection to my new house since the last 4 months. I was extremely satsfied with the 512MB/5GB deal. Then I shifted my house and applied to BSNL for shifting my connection. It's been so long. it's crazy! I spent approx Rs.5500 to get the damn thing (deposits, installation, modem purchase, etc.). Now they are giving me some stupid excuses and not shifting the connection to the new place. Airtel came 3 months ago and dug up the road one day, laid the cable and put the box the next day. Then they came door-to-door offering the connections for just 500 bucks! (refundable!) and 700 bucks a month rental! I dint take it then in the hopes of getting BSNL, but they have let me down. Now I want to take the Airtel thing, but I have this 1800 rupee modem that I got from BSNL, I don't want to spend on another Airtel modem. The Airtel technicians will not help me since they want to sell their own modem. Please help me find a way to use the hawa-hawai modem with hawa-tel!
