    IP address given is wrong.

    post as screenshot connection status page.
    I am connected via PPPOE
    PPPoE means , when you switch on the system , you are automatically connected to Internet. (USERID/PW stored in the modem )

    In WAn selection page Probably you have selected "BRIDGED" uncheck and try.

    Here is the screenshot. Here it shows NAT Enabled but in Advanced Setup it shows disabled. But it does not connect automatically. I need to dial it over PPPOE

    NAT is "Network Address Translation". When you receive data (pages) from internet, it is received on your real (dynamic) IP address 59.93.216.14 and the router knows which internal LAP IP is requesting the data. It translates the above address to go to, say, 191.168.1.2. NAT is enabled in PPPoE mode only because that is when multiple machines can connect to internet from the same internet gateway. In bridge mode, you desktop/laptop is directly connected to internet. Router plays no part except to act as a bridge on the "river".

    In bridge more, all ports are open.

    To enable port forwarding in PPPoE mode, either enable DMZ or use Virtual server option.

    When you put the router in DMZ, once again all ports are open. The IP address that must be specified is the routers internal (LAN) IP address. In your case, this is 192.168.1.1.

    As far as Virtual Server is concerned, you need to add individual IP addresses and ports in the VS option.

    Read the port-forwarding guide (link in my sig).
