Hey Friends I'm Ridam and here is my problem..........

I have a BSNL 500 home plan....and I use or have been trying to use a lot of torrent softwares........but the speeds have been about 20-40 kilobytes per second.............
where as when using my download manager..the speeds are always in 120-140 Kilobytes per second.......and sometimes even 200 Kilobytes per second.....

I know how to port forward( using hyperterminal)........but the problem is I am not able to as
in PPPOE mode( i.e connection occurs as soon as modem is turned on)
BSNL automatically assigns a dynamic IP...each time I connect to the net....
Could you please tell me how to setup a static IP address in PPPOE mode.....
from a dynamic IP address.....

Changing to Bridge mode is not an option as I prefer PPPOE mode due to
firewall provided automatically by BSNL and much more security...
and last time when I was in BRIDGE mode.......I had 140 viruses in my computer!!! but now I have none....so

MY CONFIGURATIONS:
windows 98 SE
Siemens SL2_141 wireless type 2 modem
home 500 plan
D-link DFE 520-X PCI fast ethernet adapter
PPPOE mode( dynamically assigned IP)

please tell me how to setup a static IP address from dynamic in PPPOE mode in BSNL broadband

first of all to port forward you don't need a static IP from BSNL.the IP assigned to your computer by modem must be static(something like 192.168.x.x) & not the IP provided by BSNL to your modem(something like 117.x.x.x or 59.x.x.x).

go to your LAN TCP/IP properties & in there select the option"use the following IP address & then enter the address,say,192.168.1.10.then using port forward settings forward the required ports to this IP(192.168.1.10)in this example.

thanx Whitestar...........
But what do you mean by " GO TO YOUR LAN?"

You mean network properties.....and then select TCP/IP ok.........

I'll try.

and when I typed "command" in the "run" box and then "ipconfig/all"

"ipconfig" is showing me a specific IP address always something like 192.168.1.10 always....................
so should I use this IP for port forwarding???

superprash2003

yea you should use that ip for port forwarding

thanx justforkix and superprash......

my modem/router homepage doesn't have that
"ADVANCE" TAB.........so its not possible to portforward that way........

but I have port forwarded by using hyperterminal.........
and its working perfectly.......

so thanx for providing that info.
