Thread: Connection is limited error message

Hi all,

I am using BSNL 750 unlimited plan and i put up in Chennai. I am downloading movies and musics heavily. If i continuously download more than 8 hours, my connection gets blocked. I couldn't download or upload. I did mouse over the LAN icon in system tray and checked the speed it showed the speed is 1: Gbps. I repaired it but it couldn't fix it and gave a warning that "Connection is limited. Contact your network admin". I restarted the system as well as modem but no use. After 2 hours it worked good. I have been facing this issue for a long time and i want to solve it. Please help me on this.

Thanks,
Prince3105

according to me you are facing over heating problem of modem.1 year ago when i had BSNL conn. i was facing same problem as you are facing now.that time i had UT300R2U modem.When i complained to them(BSNL Office),they asked me to bring the modem.They used that modem continuously for 7-8 hrs.,after that they said me that there was some hardware problem and because of that modem is getting over heated.They replaced that modem.After that everything worked fine..........................
I'm not sure but may be you are facing this problem.....Or Call BSNL BROADBAND helpline no.
