It is very informative and helpful.Thank you for posting the information.It will be a great help to the forum members.

Thanks, i could manage to password protect the netwrk, but when i try to encrpt the password, it doesnot allow, it again shows an error.

thank you

Is it possible to change the MTU on this model? I've tried Telnet and advanced settings through the web interface but can't find it.

@damole
Please check in WAN settings page/s.
Option may be available in the page where
you enter UserId and PW.

If Not try DRTCP.

thanks..................................

For th Nokia Siemens SL2-141 router to get to the cofiguration page normally we use 192.16.1.1 But this brings up only the basic settings. To get to the advanced settings use 192.168.1.1/main.html This time u get a more detailed menu.

The other routers supplied by BSNL is easy to configure, all you need to do is login as admin(with password admin) to the router menu(192.168.1.1 IP address mostly), and add a Virtual Server(which is given under Advanced Options). From there we can name our service as "uTorrent" (any name) and add our computer's IP address(make it static, just give an IP address that comes under your routers internally assigned IP) plus the port to be forwarded(which u can get from uTorrent).

But, it was difficult to configure this particular router as the Router Configuration menu did not give an Advanced option even if I log in as an admin user. I tried to login using a fictious superuser, but it did not work.

But finally, I solved it and now, I am able to get the incoming connections in my uTorrent and the upload also works fine. I have the green check mark to my relief

How did I do it?

I used the TELNET option and configured the Router. It is a very simple procedure and far more easier. IT WORKS FOR ALL THE ROUTERS, NO MATTER WHAT EVER THE MAKE IS

How to do it?

1. Get HyperTerminal, you can find it from Start>Accessories>Communication (for Windows users)
2. A "New Connection" window will open uip asking you to enter a name and choose an icon for the connection. You can give any name here and choose any icon. If the window doesn't pop up, then click on File>New Conncetion.
3. In the next window choose the "Connect Using" option as "TCP/IP(Winsock)" [Very Important] and then choose the Host address as 192.168.1.1(the router IP address) and the Port as 23.
4.It will take you to the Login menu, enter the login and password as "admin"(when you type the password, it won't show any asterisk or any other character, keep on typing)
5.Thats it, we are now in the Advanced Options of the Router setup.
6. Enter the menu option 6 that corresponds to NAT to enter the NAT configuration
7.It gives you 3 options and from that choose Virtual Server(ie, 1) and then choose Add
8. You can give any service name here, i gave the name as uTorrent and for Protocol choose the option 0(Zero - for tcp and udp)
9. The External Start port, end port, Internal Start port, end port > Enter it exactly same as the port given in uTorrent.(yes, all four) [I am not very sure about the exact value to give, but it worked for me when i entered the same port in uTorrent for all four port settings]
10. Give the internal IP address as your computer's IP address [I set my computer's IP address as 192.168.1.2]
11. Now, the router will save the information and you can exit (by hitting 4 and then 3) and then reboot the router by pressing 13. It will show some process kills and then after 30secs-1min, it will reboot. Wait for 1 minute and then login to the router again(By using HyperTerminal, follow steps 1, 2,3,4)
12. Now, check in the uTorrent, if its accepting the connections and is forwarding the Port. It should work for most of you out there
13. If it does not, then, go to NAT setup through the HyperTerminal again, and go to DMZ and choose Configure and give you computer's IP address. The network traffic will be open. Make sure that you have a good antivirus and a firewall installed in your computer. You can give the Firewall exception for uTorrent though. I suggest downloading and installing Avast! Antivirus for that.

Thanx for the guidance how to forward th port but, I have a FTP Server installed n i want to forward the port 21 i followed ur procedure but its not working .
plz give me solution ..

Hi, @essbebe
Thanx for reply

My connection is always on, my internal IP is 192.168.1.10 n i'm connecting through wi-fi i have Cerberus FTP Server installed n i'm using No-IP DUC for Host name which is like "xxxxxxxxx.myftp.org"

I reconfigured above settings as mentioned the snapshots are attached


Reply Plz Tahnx ........

@Crack-IT
Have you enabled FTP etc in Access control page ?
Do you see anoter DDNS option in your modem ?
Now what is the problem ? seems Ok.
Also check in www.portforward.com. router SL2-141 listed.

Hi,
@essbebe

There is a option for DDNS but no DNS Name mentioned, and also the FTP Option is Enabled in Access Control (for LAN it was previously enabled & i enabled for WAN right next to it)....

Nothing new in Portforward.com that's the same procedure as mentioned in the first Post But, i found 1 tool "PFPortChecker" there to check whether the port is opened or not.
while i m trying to Check Port 21 it shows both the TCP & UDP Ports are Open

Now i'm using FileZilla FTP server instead of Cerberus as it's easyer than Cerberus with the same Host Name Still then i'm Unable to access my system as FTP Server from other FTP Clients ....................

Kindly resolve this
Thanx ..

1.Check ere for DDNS settings

Run your own DDNS server (Dynamic DNS server)

2. If your FTP server is available post correct
address here or PM to me for testing.

3. If you check your present dynamic IP
and enter it in your
browser does the modem access page open ?



Sorry everybody. Laptop key H requires banging !
letter h or H may be
missing sometimes in my posts. My Apologies.

Hi,
@essbebe

Now i'm using a free Dynamic DNS server as u suggested which is devilshome.dyndns.org and the host name from No-IP DUC is devilshome.myftp.org which i'm using from the beginng

While i enters the Dynamic IP which is currently "117.197.252.186"
like : http: //117.197.252.186 in web browser it brings me the same SIEMENS Modem configuration Page .....

is there any thing else i should do to resolve this problem

Reply Plz .........

Please try from some other system.

The connection was refused when attempting to contact devilshome.dyndns.org.

you should not use your dyndns domain from within your network.. your firewall seems to be blocking..

Hi,

@ whitestar_999

while i enters my external IP address followed by FTP://
which is like ftp:// 117.197.246.6

it brings me a FTP Login page which asks me for user name and password
but each time i enters the user name and password of my own FTP server it replies
could not login to the FTP server with the user name and password specified

and i have FileZilla Client installed when i tries from this it shows me a error message

Status: Resolving address of devilshome.myftp.org
Status: Connecting to 117.197.246.6:21...

Response: 220 Ftp firmware update utility

is there anything else to do ......

you cannot access your 117.x.x.x address from within your own network.. it wouldnt work.. you should use the internal LAN ip 192.168.1.x ip to access ftp,http within your network..
