Guessing you have Windows XP sp2 or earlier.
Download this patch & install.

1.
Presume you have the updates sp2 or sp3.

2
When you did changes in your computer , modem settings are
not changed.
Mention your modem make and model.
2a.
What was the error message ?
Start RUN cmd OK
type ping 192.168.1.1
do you get a response ?
If not thismay not be your Modem's IP address.

3.If you had used a dialer to
connect, create new one in computer.
Start All programs/Accessories ?Communications
Network connection wizard.
or choose "Always On " mode.
Follow instructions.

4. Start Network LAN
Properties
TCP/IP
Properties
Select Obtain IP address automatically.
ApplY Save.

Feed back. ( response: "tried all does not work "will not help !)

I don't think you need to change any network settings.

If you are using the LAN cable to connect modem then jump skip this paragraph else if you are using a USB then install the USB modem driver from the CD shipped with the modem.

Just go to
Control panel> Network connections

Click "New connection wizard"

.

Mention your modem model and make.
Or select it from here.
BSNL BROADBAND MAIN MENU

Our interest, is to ensure you can use XP as OS,
and connect to Internet ,
because of difficulties in your system in using Vista.

just go to the bsnl office,and tell them to configure the modem.they have a password to open this modem,they does not tell us this.
ur line is start???????
other wise it will start after 2 or 3 days.jst contact to the S.D.O of ur branch.it is his duty.all the best.........

superprash2003

you mean the password to login to the modem? that is known to us..

I think there is a way to manually override the settings to default. You have to take a pin and stick it on a small hole that says reset. Try to look for it in Modem manual. After doing this you can configure your modem manually with a little help from this forum.
