Thread: Netgear N150 DGN1000 in Bridge mode

Hi,

I have a BSNL limited connection. I use night 2-8 unlimited usage to download youtube videos. I use a software to start my PC at 2 AM and start downloading and then stops the pc at 8 AM. With my previous modem provided by BSNL, I had bridged the connection and so I used to connect at 2 and disconnect at 8 using a dial-up. All the usage was not charged.

With the new modem, i had to configure it as PPPoE. Its always connected when its on. BSNL have a bug in their data calculation. If the modem is ON and connected to Internet from say 1 45 to 2 15 AM, the data usage calculation is not computed correctly. It takes the usage after 2 and puts it in chargeable data i.e. before 2.

So now, when I use my software to download,the downloaded data during unlimited usage is charged under chargeable usage, even though my system was OFF during that time.

I was wondering, like my old BSNL modem, is there a way to configure Netgear N150 in bridge mode?

Which is your self care portal ?( for usage check )

I use 10.240.43.216 to check my usage?

Advanced options: WAN uncheck First button
In Basic settings Try YES
feedback
confirm your userid is @ dataone.in

I have unchecked the Advanced -> WAN Setup -> Connect Automatically, as required option.

In basic Connection, i have chosen the, Yes, requires a login option.

When i start the modem, it still connects on its own.

I gave the username as userid@dataone.in in basic settings, its not connecting to internet anymore. I have a red LED for internet

sorry double post

Option 1 :
[quote]its not connecting to internet anymore.I have a red LED for internet[quote]
YES : Adv Options WAN button unchecked.

Use your dialer to connect.

Option 2 :
Change to NO.
Keep Adv Options WAN first button unchecked.
Use Dialer.
Feedback.

Option 1,

I kept the required to login option as YES, gave the details in basic settings and Apply. Login i have provided only the userid and no "@dataone.in" In WAN setup, the connect automatically was unchecked.

The internet is already connected. No change. I didnt have to use the dialer.

Option 2

I kept the required to login option as NO, gave the details in basic settings and Apply. In WAN setup, the connect automatically was unchecked.

I used my Dialer, which was the same with my previous modem, to connect.

The dialer just says "Connecting thorugh WAN mini port (PPPoE)" does not connect. The internet LED is RED.

I had to configure it as PPPoE.
Menu option available in DGN1000 ? apart from YES/NO business ?
give all options if seen.

I have these many options,

Sorry. Made a mistake.
Post link screen shot encaspulation option. expanded.
PPPoA over ATM PPPoE/Dynamic IP / Bridged/ RFC 1483/Static IP etc)

http://help.orange.co.uk/orangeuk/su...ersonal/461589

Checked all links. NoGO.

I only have 2 options. PPPoE and PPPoA

imageshack.us/photo/my-images/217/menuoption1.jpg/

Do not enter ID/PW in Netgear modem/router pages. keep PPPoE.

Check connection status page in the router.

Check HELP in Basic settings page.

If OS used is Windows 7 try "diagnose" for the LAN connection.

Do you have the old ADSl modem in working condition. ?

Future ref screenshots DGN1000
http://screenshots.portforward.com/N...1000/index.htm

If i select PPPoE, i have to enter login information. Netgear wont let me apply the changes. it throws an error.

As for ADSL settings, Multiplexing Method is LLC-Based, VPI is 0, VCI is 35, DSL mode is auto

The old ADSL modem was from BSNL, rental basis. I have returned it.

It can be entered but entries will be Greyed depending on YES or NO answer.
or menu will not appear to enter id and pw

Update:
type in Browser ip address as stored by you. ;
http://192.168.0.1/setup.cgi?next_file=mode.htm

Give feedback.

If i choose, required to login as NO, then yes, i can leave the login and password field blank. But then I cannot connect using the dialer or automatically.

I am not sure what I need to do with the link you have provided.

I have given, Get Dynamically From ISP for IP.

I have chosen both Modem + Router in the link that u have provided

Post screen shot of that page.for further instructions.

REstore your original PPPoE settings . SAVE or Back up settings to your Hard disk. ( likely to forget different settings )

The three screenshots show that your wifi AP is disabled. and connected.
Could you use your Wan miniport dialer to connect ?
