Default Configuring machine for night usage...

Hi everyone,
I would like to setup my machine for night usage hours of BSNL.
I got UT-300R2U modem provided which i have configured in bridge mode and i used WGR614 Netgear wireless router for wireless .....which is in PPPoE mode.


I would like to setup my laptop for starting the automatic downloads on the Bittorrent software during the night free hours.

Well long when i was looking at the posts of this forum i had found regarding some scripting being done for all this purpose ..but unfortunately i could not find that thread when i searched ......

So please tell me what are the various options that i can use to do this?

for connect/disconnect use batch files.
paste these lines in notepad & save files as connect.bat & disconnect.bat

for disconnect.bat---
Quote:
rasdial "bsnl" /disconnect
for connect
Quote:
rasdial "bsnl" ******_***@bsnl.in password
where bsnl is the name of my connection(it depends on what name you give to your connection)
******_***@bsnl.in is my username
password is my password

schedule these .bat files to run at 1:55AM(disconnect) & 2:05AM(connect) then again run disconnect.bat at 7:55AM.
remember to save files as .bat as notepad saves files as .txt by default.when saving files select the file type as all files & then save the file as .bat.bat files are like .exe files & when you double click on them they execute like exe files.you can check your files by double clicking on connect.bat & disconnect.bat to see if they are working.

well you can use whitestar's method if you change your netgear to bridged mode .. then you will have to dial whenever you want to connect to the net.. and the above procedure will do so automatically

Ya got it ...but a small question as superprash said ......i will have to put netgear in bridge mode.......
I have never done that ..i mean never tried that ...lets see .
But is this ok :

UT-300R2U : in bridge mode with DHCP enabled
WGR614 : in bridge mode with DHCP enabled
and i use a dialer on the laptop ?
Will this work?

yes you can do that..mostly all netgear routers have this option "Does Your Internet Connection Require A Login? ." in the BASIC SETTINGS.. just set it to NO.. and use the dialer..
if you dont want to do the dialing etc.. you can keep the netgear in ppoe mode and use a telnet script to reboot the modem instead..
the choice is yours.. since whitestar has provided the solution already.. you are just 1 step away from it.. just disable ppoe in netgear
