I have GLB802c router. Although I know that I can set many of the values still to be sure please guide what I need to fill in the text boxes. Also please tell the username and pass is the same as what I enter in dialer or something@bsnl.in
Here is a screenshot

cool_techie_tvm

Disable DHCP only if u manually assigned the IP address. Else enable it.

Enter the username without @bsnl.in
Enter the password
Enter 208.67.222.222 in primary DNS
Enter 208.67.220.220 in secondary DNS.

Thats it. Save it and reboot. Verify the router is able to connect with BSNL network.

How to make from poppe mode to bridge mode? I will be needing cable right? As right now .. M using wifi for my lappy.. N modem in poppe mode.. But it seems bridge mode is better.. And also.. I hears from many.. In bridge mode u dont have to port forward in utorrent or any other client.. Correct me of m wrong..

cool_techie_tvm

No need for right cabling to change back to bridge mode. Just reset the modem and u are good to go.

Yes it is true that there is no need for port-forwarding in bridged mode. But u may require the same when u are using a software firewall + bridged mode.

Thnx for the prompt reply. All I wanted to do by setting the modem in PPPOE mode was to automate 2-8 happy hours download. But I think even with help of an macro i can schedule and since I am using vista and the trick given in Broadband How to doesn't works. I need to tickle around with this technique and se if it works. 2 queries though :
1. Unable to find a task I scheduled in task scheduler(vista)
2. I got my installation done on 16th feb of this month. How will I be charged? will I get only 15 days of this month or they count in some other manner.

Yaar it is much easier to automate your downloads in bridged mode. If u are using XP, u can automate the whole process using RASDIAL.

If needed i can post it.

Mr.Tooth Fairy

well buddy i think for scheduling bridge mode is much more easy n reliable than ppoe mode.. Really.. Mine bsnl ppl did in poppe mode.n i am still finding how to convert from poppe mode to bridge mode.. Damm.. M not getting proper idea...... And also... As cool techie said.. Its correct.. But for vista also it will be solved .. Let me know more exact details.. I m using vista. Can help u out..i prefer bridge mode for gettinng shcedule downloads...


Cool techie.. Hey suppose i use my modem in bridge mode .. Schedule downloads.. All done. But still i will have problem to reboot modem right? Like tht i have to do it manually.. As in case of wifi.. What u say...

@Cooltechie
The real problem is I am using vista. But still if it is much easier using RASDIAL then I might consider dual booting. And always a tutorial regarding RASDIAL will not help me but many others so go ahead.
@Mr.Tooth Fairy
I have read the discussion that u had with just4kix in the broadband how to section.
U never got a solution with the AHK script. So I am just trying out some other trick like macro reading key and mouse clicks and schedule the macro to run at specific times.Comment
Also any answers to these queries

Mr.Tooth Fairy

well i tried the macro thing also.. like mouse click.. but that also dint worked.. i think glitches with vista.. may be it can work in xp.. but still i dint get any success in macro..


regarding the schedule u r not able to find out.. 1s r u sure the task was saved? second thing.. remember the name of the task u created..
now if u r done n u wanna see.. just open vista task scheduler and on the left pane.. see.. "task scheduler library " in the center pane.. top section u will see the schedule taks.. hope u got the point..

cool_techie_tvm

Hmm probably u are not able to telnet to your router in vista, right? U need to install telnet in Vista.

superprash2003

i've had trouble using task scheduler in vista.. its pretty complicated compared to xp

Mr.Tooth Fairy

whom u r addressing it to ?? cool techie.. if me.. than i have done. telnet working for me..

mad1231moody

Well I have found a way to install telnet on vista. But still when the script is executed all I get is the cmd telnet window. Now I am finding a freeware macro recorder for vista.
And please friends you don't have any answers to those questions

Mr.Tooth Fairy

i replied for this... i think now u wil be able to find your schedule task...

what u gonna do with macro now?? what clicks u want?? lol

cool_techie_tvm

Ofcourse u had done that previously. Dont u remember us discussing the same last month in another thread?

Why going for such escapades while u can simply install telnet? Kindly checkout Vista: Installing the Telnet Client | Microsoft Vista | Tech-Recipes

Mr.Tooth Fairy

oh i rremembered.. but tht time.. case with telnet was solved.. but still some problem with automation i found.. i dont remember now.. i need to do it again. but dont have much time.. for it..

mad1231moody

Well cooltechie, like I said I have installed telnet so I don't want to know how to install telnet. If u remember in the discussion that u had with toothFairy in broadband how to section, the problem was not with telnet but the problem was with automation. At the scheduled time the the script ran, but only to open telnet window without executing any command like reboot.
@toothfairy: Why i am insisting on a macro reader is that, a macro will simply follow the steps as if I was operating the computer. Just scheduling the macro will do the job without my presence. Comment

cool_techie_tvm

I am not exactly using windows vista now, so i am a bit unsure of the telnet affair. But i had managed to reboot the router well with the procedure given in the broadband how to section. I had to do certain modifications like instead of telnet 192.168.1.1 being commonly employed in XP, it should be o telnet 192.168.1.1 in vista.

So if u can open up the telnet window like i mentioned, then the rest of the procedure is pretty straight forward. U also need to know the command for rebooting your router..

U can use to know more about the commands being employed for telnet in Vista in http://windowshelp.microsoft.com/Win...02ab91033.mspx

And yes u are free to follow the macro method. Please do keep us posted about the procedure employed, maybe the mods can make that as a sticky !!

mad1231moody

This is getting frustrating. What I am saying is that I have installed telnet in vista and I am able to reboot the router through it. The problem arises during automation.
@toothfairy: Note taken of your suggestion. But still unable to find task named "reboot" which I assigned it myself.
One more question. How do I check if G.dmt is enabled. And what is my snr value. Should I consider Local or Remote as my SNR margin

cool_techie_tvm

1. Unable to find a task I scheduled in task scheduler(vista)

See current tasks by selecting a grouping in the tree view at the left of the screen: Task Scheduler (Local) > Task Scheduler Library > Microsoft *

2. I got my installation done on 16th feb of this month. How will I be charged? will I get only 15 days of this month or they count in some other manner.

U can use only 15 days worth data. The billing will be done on pro-rate basis.

Sorry, didnt notice it earlier.
