Thread: Changing DNS BSNL Punjab

When I try to change dns thing, I have no idea where to go. when i open network connections, there is 1. Dial up broadband connection and 2. Local area network connection. and dns can be changed in both of them. so where exactly should i go and change dns thing. and which dns is better for my area with 750ul plan.

LAN Network.
or google dns 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4

Thanx a lot mate. even though i was somewhat aware of it, but u have confirmed it. but as i saw u chose automatic ip , when i chose same system says limited or no connectivity. should i use ip addresses given by engineer?

may be DHCP not enabled in modem ( usually in Lan menu page)
For a single system Ip address can be entered.
For Multiple systems auto Ip address preferred.

Picture is from archives in this forum.
check speed at above site twice.
for speed tweak try tcp/ip optimizer from
http://speedguide.net.
After tweaks check again.

1. Mention modem - model and make.

2. Modem mode : PPPoE (Always ON) or Bridge (Dialer)

3. How many systems do you use ? Do you use WiFi.

It is not mandatory to use " Obtain IP address automatically " if you are not using more than one system. If it is causing problems to you, better configure the IP manually.

You can try enabling DHCP in modem and check.

Modem : Beetel 220BXI
I dont use wifi.
I have only one system. Winxp pro sp3.
I use dial up broadband and I think its Bridged. How do I know its bridged or pppoe d ?

Here are some screen shots to help you good guys to help me.








anybody???????????????????????????????

Mod note : // Removed attachment no. 1 as MAC ID is visible. Please be careful next time.//

Ok. DNS entry same as first screen shot. Since you are facing limited or no connectivity when choosing " Obtain IP address automatically ", simply choose " Use the following IP address " and follow the screen shot below

Why despite such good SNR and Line att. values and good speed test results, I feel unhappy specially with browsing??????????(I have 750 Ul plan and I live under 1 km from exchange) And why the Output power is so low???? And what does it mean???

And thanx Mr. Admin for warning me about visible mac id. But how does it pose me any threat??????????????

And sometimes its Output power in negative.

Uncheck button adsl2 +
TRY again.
if no improvement
also uncheck MOd mode ADSL2
Connection Lost ?
GDMT ( may not work for BSNL recent reports ))
Back to ADSL2 .
192.168.1.1/main.html for Advanced options

Please look at picture no.3 and tell me what do u mean? Should I unmark ADSL2+? GDmat is already checked.

I simply unmark ADSL2+ and this is what happened. I think its better now. What do u say

I simply unmark ADSL2+ and this is what happened. I think its better now. What do u say

You seem to know what to do.
Since you "think"it is better , no comments.
What happened also you only know!

Oh come on mate. I am really thankful to you for all this help. I always wonder how you and dileep know so much about this stuff. And I also feel to give you something back for your help. But how come?????????????

What else do you want me to upload. and please tell me which is best option.

For a stable connection, keep adsl2+ and adsl2 buttons unchecked.
If you lost connection Restore Adsl2.

Check for two days and satisfy yourself , the connection/speed/surfing are OK.
You appear to be a beginner, and I won't advise you to try FW upgrade now..

DNS : just above DSL menu item in modem. Ignore.

Hope you tried the suggestions given above.

Did you try new DNS ? Still the same ?

1. Download a well seeded torrent and report the speed.

2. Download any file from Microsoft and report the speed.

3. Try this guide

http://www.indiabroadband.net/broadb...onnection.html (How to: get max. speed of a connection)

I am afraid there is any reliable way to find what is your internet speed. It just keeps fluctuating from 35 to 70kbps. But most of the times it between 50 to 65kbps. Is there any definate way find that out. I couldnt find a well seeded torrent as I m not used to torrents. I use fileservers and premium accounts to rip off internt. lol.

if you can download 200-210mb in 1 hour then everything is fine.

This is my DNS set up:







Started a Torrent at 10:00 am of 700 mb with 14 seeds of 26 connected(5 in swarm). Just before finish, utorrent reported averaged download speed was 53 kb/s. I was on ADSL2.

I have a question. If I am uploading something, will downloading speed be affected? Or Upload and Download can run simultaneously at rated speeds , in may case Download speed around 60 kb/s and upload around 30 kb/s.

Ok updating soon download from Microsoft servers.

53 Kbps or 53 KBps ?

Update on option (2) in my previous post.
