So complain to BSNL. And change your broadband password.

Yep simple solution as said by just4kix.

Complaint to BSNL and change the password and tell them to port bind your ID (usually they do it but dont know how they missed yours)

How did you know ?

To check use your ID and password at your friends'. If you can connect, your ID is not port binded. Request them to port bind your ID.

If you are using a wireless modem/router, others can access through your router. Use WEP for encrypting your connection. Please use

http://www.indiabroadband.net/broadb...primer-ii.html (Wireless Security Primer - II)

Also do not remember to change the password.

To change password, try

http://bbservice.bsnl.in/ or http://data.bsnl.in/

To check usage

This is so typical.

At least the person should come back and say whether the problem is resolved or not even if there are no "Thank you's".

There's a common misconception that only IP's starting from "59" have roaming portability and IP's starting from "117" doesn't. Not true.

Say your IP starts from "117" and ten of your friends share the same exchange then YES, portability is possible. My IP starts with "117" and i have two friends around who are connected to the same exchange as i am. I have there passwords and they have mine. In an event my internet connection is down, i use there username and passwords to login. I works for me and it works for them too.

Those who thought that it wasn't possible to hack bsnl accounts or thought that the user/pass were unusable since ports were binded might have to think again.

Your user/pass are vulnerable to people in your own area or exchange.
