    Try PPPoE with the following

    Operation Mode = Enabled
    VPI = 0
    VCI = 35
    Default Route = Enabled
    IGMP = Disabled
    Encapsulation mode = LLC
    MTU = 1492 or 1500
    NAT = Enabled
    Use DNS = Enabled

    But BSNL does not manufacture modems; nor does Airtel. Modem is something very generic and confirms to international standards on communications. Unless there is something in the firmware that prevents one modem working on one ISP but not on the other, I am not sure why they should not work.

    If the modem is not going to work and that is guaranteed by Airtel (or BSNL) then the whole discussion is academic and the only option is buy the modem from Airtel.

    Have you tried to configure it as a bridge? Use the same VPI/VCI values. Create a dialer in your PC/laptop and check the error. Please report if you get Error 678.
