RESET the modem to factory settings and try Dialer mode with Airtel UserId and PW.

You are awesome. Thanks a bunch for giving me the good news.

Access modem and use VPI/VCI 1 and 32 for Airtel.

I was able to make this change.

DNS opendns 208.67.222.222 and google dns 8.8.8.8

Where do I do this change. I didn't quite understand this part. I didn't find any place in the WAN settings where I could specify the DNS entries. Can you please elaborate?

I still am in Chicago and will be visiting my parents in the next few weeks - that is when I was going to install. I tried to install it at my home in Chicago but couldn't seem to get it to work with SBCGlobal DSL service.

I really appreciate your help, and thanks much.

Please post the main menu of the modem router.


TRY " Dialer" mode .
http://www.dslreports.com/faq/amfaq/...y_Router_Hints

Under Advanced Options you will find DNS DDNS etc.
I need at least one screen shot of the router page.
For Any ISP ADSL ( if cable connection cable modem needed ) VPI VCI is critical to connect.
will update later. for SBC global.
please select PPPoE and use correct vpivci for global.
CLICK this link.
PPPoA

Better buy a Vonage unit also when you come to India. For H24 telephone connection ( of course VOIP service Internet should work )
I think Magic jack also giving free offers for U.S Canada based users. Check the web site.

I got to do 15 posts before posting any images or url. So posting # 3

I have attached the screenshots of the ZyXEL modem. Please let me know if you want me to attach screenshot of any particular menu item.

Thanks much for helping me.

Very good feedback.
Makes the thread more useful for future users
Presume you have all information to set up the router In India.
2.
The DNS entries show Spain locations.
You may try Opendns 208.67.220.220
and 208.67.222.222 and google 8.8.8.8 8.8.4.4
( for all ISp's )
3.
Usually you can add one more VPI/VCI link and enter data for SBCglobal and try (dialer Mode).

Diagnostics page will give you the pass components please post screen shot.

I have book marked this page for Zyxcel router.Thanks again.

@moderator:

Sorry for bringing this thread out again, but I am facing the same problem.
Got my airtel broadband connection here in Delhi yesterday and tried to connect my Zyxel to it...fail!
When I plug my super-old Siemens Plus to it, all works fine...what is the matter?

I tried all of the above but cant get any result...

Thank you for your help!

Give model/make/Number wifi router or not.
Or select from list in Wa3002_g4 quick guide.

Good morning,

thank you for your answer and help. I have used all entries as mentioned above, tried also the google version and the Airtel DNS. Below the screenshots with the Airtel DNS.

My Siemens is a super simple old non wireless Siemens C2-010-I
There is no menu, no webconfiguration...I just plugged it in and used Dial-up with the Airtel Username and PW...worked...did not change any IP or anything...just plugged in and worked...

Why does the Zyxel need configuration then? Yesterday the Airtel person told me, this model would not work...I think he just wanted to sell me his device...

Any input appreciated...

Besides, these are Airtels data:

airtel ips : 192.168.1.2 to 254 ip

: 255.255.255.0 subnet mask

: 192.168.1.1 gateway

: 202.56.215.55 Dns

: 202.56.215.54 Alternate Dns

My Siemens is a super simple old non wireless Siemens C2-010-I
There is no menu, no webconfiguration...I just plugged it in and used Dial-up with the Airtel Username and PW...worked...did not change any IP or anything...just plugged in and worked..

.
Don't worry. Keep this is standby. No need to check or see menu pages!
Anyway , NOW i have the full Horoscope ( "KUNDALI") full details about this modem !!!

Para two: please wait. checking your ZYxel/beetel660W settings.
(A)
All seem Ok. Select In NAT "full feature." instead of SUA

Try again. If not connected
(B)
select Instead of PPPoE"Bridge" and use dialer.

feedback.

quick guide.

Thank you very much, also for the link.

I will try that right away.

One question:
Is there a chance, Airtel is blocking certain routers or uses special protocols, which my Zyxel is not able to work with?

Why does the supersimple Siemens work without any configuration and the Zyxel not?

Thanks

Modem itself named Beetel as per your screen shots !!
Try only LAN mode now. wifi later.
Some minor problem in the terms used .

Refer the quick Install Guide. about 1.2 MB only.

( siemens is same as Dlink dsl 502 T mostly !!!)
.

This unit does not seem to have Multiple VCO entries.
All old modems have default 7 connections in "Dialer Mode ""rfc bridging etc.
So you enter ID/PW externally and modem selects line for VPI/VCI 1 and 32.
waiting for feedback.

The Siemens is a non-Wlan, very simple Lan-only device...the Dlink dsl 502T is a wireless one, isnt it? So how can they be similar?

See this: alice-wiki.de/Siemens_C2-010-I

Should we try to make Zyxcel work for Airtel BB


or

Just tried to find out, what are the differences or parallelities between Zyxcel and the Siemens...would maybe help to make it work.

Access similar menu pages as given in your post No10.
from siemen's model and attach it here.

Both the options from above did not work, neither select In NAT "full feature." instead of SUA nor select Instead of PPPoE"Bridge" and use dialer.

Connecting through the Siemens would bring me to the Internet right away.

How to access the Webconfiguration of the Siemens?
192.168.1.1 does not work.

for ref:

Check the arrow and list different modes available. apart from ROUTING> Select Bridge then RFC1483 SAVE
TRy dialer.


Post Diagnostics page result > No screen shot needed.
