Thread: Unable to convert Nokia Siemens C2110 to PPPoE Mode

I want to simultaneously use Internet on my laptop(via USB) & desktop(via Ethernet). So I followed the steps religiously as per : C2110 (Type-A) ADSL MODEM MULTIUSER CONFIGURATION

But I'm unable to connect to net using the PPPoE Mode, so I'm forced to revert back to Bridged mode. Because of that I cannot use both the machines simultaneously. The LINK lamp is glowing steadily. The same is that case with all other lamps.

Is there any other settings that needs to be changed ?

I had put my <username> without "@dataone" or "bsnl.in" in the modem config box. Is that OK ?

And in the Configuration page it's shown as connected !

I've restarted the system & modem many times, but in vain. But, I haven't resetted the modem so far.

I've attached some screenshots for reference.

Do I need to disable DHCP server ?

in your PC LAN settings(your 1st pic)set IP & DNS to automatic.

whitestar_999 : Thanks for the valuable tip. PPPoE mode is now working fine.

I'm wondering why then BSNL guys has tipped to enter IP & DNS address in C2110 (Type-A) ADSL MODEM MULTIUSER CONFIGURATION !
