iPhone is not launched in india so you are using a set either hacked or from abroad.in either case it is very difficult to make it work here with bsnl.

iPhone is not launched officialy in india.iPhone is locked to a particular service provider meaning it can only be used on that particular provider.all these versions people are using are hacked/unlocked versions which will not be able to work with their full features.here is a link---
Mac News: iPhone: The iPhone's Long, Hard Road to India

with each firmware update from apple there is a risk of unlocked phones being locked again.

I have been using the iphone(firmware 1.1.4) for the past 4 months now,works fine with my MTNL Triband.

All the features except the visual voicemail(carrier specific feature) are fully functional on the unlocked version.

Are we talking about using iPhone at Wi-Fi hotspot or connecting the iPhone to BSNL broadband via a wireless router?

In the second case, you must configure the modem in PPPoE mode and enable DHCP on the wi-fi router.

Then there is no big deal - whether your iphone is locked or not locked. You can use it on any wi-fi network.

a) Configure your wireless modem/router in PPPoE mode
b) Enable DHCP and SSID broadcast on the wi-fi router
c) Enable wi-fi on your iPhone. The wi-fi will automatically detect the network.
d) If your wi-fi is protected (WEP or WPA-PSK), it will ask for the network key.
e) It will then connect to the network. The router's DHCP will assign an IP to the iPhone.

Note that BSNL, Airtel or such ADSL ISPs have nothing to do with your home wireless network. You make the network wireless at home by having a wireless router.

Also see some guides in the "Broadband How-to" section - particularly the SOHO guide.
