Thread: Help needed for configuring wireless for MacBook

it hasnt got solved... i tried changing the service name that one has to give while configuring WAN to the one which you said... it still doesnt work.. i really wonder now what to do... had it been windows on my laptop would it have been easier?

Try using a gud wifi router..like linksys or dlink, if not buy than borrow from ur friend as i hv faced this problem. I was able to connect to bsnl router thro HP pavilion but at the same time with macbook i was not. I got hold of Linksys WRT54G and all problem solved. It seems that it is some compatibility issue between bsnl router & macbook. U can try this & atleast narrow down the problem.

mate, are you sure you entered your bsnl username and password correctly? you are getting an authentication failure message.. try entering without the @bsnl.in or @dataone.in

I hope this thread has not gone dead by now.

@superprash2003:
Yes, I have given the username and password required in the configuration of the pppoe interface correctly i.e. without @bsnl.in or dataone.in.
I tried to connect to internet by connecting my macbook using ethernet and it works. That is a single connection either from my windows desktop or my macbook works, multiple connections dont.
I still get the authentication failure error in the summary of WAN for PPPoE(checking on router page: http://192.168.1.1).
Where i am i going wrong?

go to this link.bsnl has a guide for MAC users too.read that guide & configuration for ut300r2u & mt841 & mt882 modems.

Hi,

Configure your ADSL router to 192.168.1.1
Configure your wireless router to 192.168.0.1
Go to Macbook system preference --click network--click airport---make sure you have selected DHCP

It should work..
