Hi
Well if ur modem was configured for both and if it was done by the BSNL people then they must definitely set it to bridge mode.
Which means u need to use a dialer every time u connect on to the internet using ur username and password.....
U will have to configure ur nokia semeins sl2_141 .. into PPPoE mode so that the connection always remains ON until u dont Power off the modem .
Then u will be able to get internet on ur wired machine as well as ur Laptop simultaneously.

If u want help then please post ur modems configuration page screen shots here so that .....may be i can get help to configure it to PPPoE mode.

rahulzzz

thanx for reply..
well the bsnl techs did'nt knew anything..they just gave me wireless modem and said do it urself..

here the screen shot of my wireless connection on my notebook


hope this is what u were looking for..


i have connected my pc witht ethernet.. i see the lights blinking and everything..but when i open browser it prompts me to connect the bsnl dialup.. as if it needs user id again and the says phone line busy that bcoz iam already logged in from my laptop..

Hey i wanted the screen shots of the wireless modem that is given to u by BSNL

try typing Http://192.168.1.1
I hope this will be the link for ur router toooo.....cos its there for most of them ..
Then u will be asked for a username : admin password: admin the defaults generally.
Also let me know the exact model no of ur Router/Modem from BSNL.
This u showed me was ur connected machines details .....i expected the Routers configuration page.

click on WAN.there in connections look for if any connection has VPI/VCI values 0 & 35 respectively.if not create one such connection.select connection type as pppoe,encapsulation--LLC,make this connection as default route.enter your bsnl username & password(without @bsnl.in i think) & enable DNS.set it to automatic but if you have to enter use these servers(open dns)---208.67.222.222 and 208.67.220.220.also enable DHCP.first connect to bsnl & then you may want to ask about port forwarding.also set in TCP/IP properties of both comp/laptop"obtain IP address & dns server address automatically".

Hey whitestar .....1 small question ......
when we dial in ....is it simply loging in ....or is it really dialing?

whitestar_999

i don't think that modem actually dials.it just negotiate the link with local exchange(very much like when you take your laptop to a wifi network & it started getting IP address) & when the link established it login with the username/password.

You need to do the following:

a) As suggested earlier, configure/setup the SL2_141 in PPPoE mode. Please have a look at this guide: http://www.indiabroadband.net/bsnl-b...onnection.html (Solution for multiple machines connecting to same BB connection). The guide has SL2_141 settings at the end.

b) You must get rid of all internet connection dialers on your laptop/desktop.

c) Remove dial-up connections from the browsers also.

thanx guys!! iam working on i. it think i have to start from a scratch..
here's a screeshot of WAN



the issue right now is that my pc shows it connected but is asking for bsnl dialup to log me in..
if i disconnect from my laptop and and use pppoe mode it works in my pc ethernet . not working simultaniously

neways let me give it try again by manual..

rahulzzz

hi where do u want me to do this from.. my laptop or my pc??

whitestar_999

try this from computer connected through ethernet to modem.

rahulzzz

ok..thanx

shriniketsarkar

Hmm ...even i had thought so .....it never actually dials ...i guess it simply synchronizes and ......connects ....cos if it would have dialed then PSTN mein aur broadband mein farak nahi reh jata na .....I guess PSTN mein bhi dial hota hai na ....?

whitestar_999

yes!in PSTN a no. is also given to dial(e.g.all gprs mobile internet services require a no. to dial).bsnl's netone no. is 172222.

rahulzzz

did not work guys??

do i need to put username and pass in pppoe mode..??
in modem page?

rahulzzz

guys here a screen shot i think that needs to be changed..let me know...
FIG 1


FIG 2


i got here from fig 1 by clicking EDIT on pppoe_0_35_1>next Choose pppoe tho it was set to bridging..the next thing is see it this username and password screen.. just wanted to make sure if i change setting here and things dont work .. how am i suppose to get to default settings back..
and also.. what would be pppoe service name???

i hope iam in right direction


and one more thing what if i want to connect 2 wireless laptops with the modem.. will that be easier and how..

thanx a ton..

whitestar_999

when you click on edit on ppoe_0_35 choose pppoe if it was set to bridge.enter your bsnl username/password in this next screen.click next & if you get some dns server address to fill use these(208.67.222.222 and 208.67.220.220).after completing all steps you have to click on apply changes.it will take around 2 min i think.after that restart your modem just to be sure.if it didn't work out you can get your settings back by simply editing the connection again & selecting bridging instead of pppoe.rest of the settings will be same in both cases.once you are done modem will make the connection itself without anything to be done from your side(like entering/clicking to connect in windows when using bridge mode).after that as soon as laptop is in range you simply have to connect to wifi & you will be connected to net.

rahulzzz

still nothing.... it did not work..

changing it to pppoe username and passwrd thing made net working on this laptop too. so had to undo all the changes..

Guys...

Do i need anything else from what i have
changing the scenario..now trying to connect internet to my two wifi enabled laptops simultaniously

1.wifi adsl modem
2. two wifi laptops..

i dont think i need some access point or something..

guys this is damn hard. i mean i can figure how how to.. manual is of no help...
may be you guys can tell me where can i see step by step config with images..that'll help..

thanx
