Hey so I got BSNL a few months ago as they were the first to be available in my new building. Service isn't that bad. Since the past maybe 6-7 days whenever I connect my Beetel 220bx to my WRT54G (DDWRT'd) to setup wifi, it connects for a 10-15 minute period (it varies a lot) , then the middle two lights of my Beetel modem (link and data) drop out and the modem reconnects (sometimes it keeps reconnecting in a never ending loop). The only way to regain wifi connectivity is to turn off both medem and router, turn on modem and wait for it to establish a connection, then turn of my router. In an attempt to solve this problem, I have tried the following configurations (all of them work, but they drop out as mentioned):
1. Modem as a bridge, PPPoE settings fed into the router
2. PPPoE settings fed into modem, router in automatic configuration- dhcp mode
3. Modem in bridge mode, router in Router mode (not the usual gateway) with the modem connected to the router through on of the four LAN ports- I then login by clicking on the bsnl connection logo on my laptop desktop with the PPPoE settings I have fed.
Surprisingly, with a direct wired connection from the modem, the connection does not drop.
Please help me if you have any suggestion- just got an iPad and can't use the wifi normally cause of this bsnl crap
Thanks![]()
