Thread: New Modem, No DSL Light

Hello Everyone.

I am continuing this thread from the previous one which was before I received the Modem and User ID from BSNL.

I have the ZTE ZXDSL 531B Type 2 (4 USB/ WiFi) Modem.

I have made the connections after reading various posts on the forum and also as suggested by Essbebe in the previous thread. But I have been unsuccessful in configuring the internet.
The power and WLan lights are on.The DSL and Internet is dark.
I have set up for a 'Always on PPPoE'
And when I try to connect in 'Bridging' settings, after 30 seconds I get 'Error 678'.
The Splitter is fine and Phone line has a dial tone.
The DSL LED is functional because it blinks once when Modem starts.

Here is a log of my ipconfig/all

I have waited 2 months to get this connection, I do not know how long, and if every, BSNL will send the engineer.

Please guide me towards a solution for this problem.

Thanks and Regards.

PS: This is the first modem/ router i have seen which does not have a hard reset push button.
