Thread: how to configure SL2_141 modem for ppoe mode?

i am using the sl2_141 modem in bridge mode,which requires the username & password to connect each time.i want to configure my modem in ppoe mode so that i get instantly connected to the net as soon as the pc boots.kindly someone guide me how to configure the same....expecting a reply soon..help me plsss.

in the connection settings just change the connection(bridge one)type to pppoe from bridged by editing its properties with rest of the settings same.you will be asked to enter your bsnl username/password(without @dataone.in).also see this guide for port forwarding--

i am giving you step by step images try to understand them i think you should be able to make in one go, images are self explanatory

contd.

did as per the images you posted....but it didnt work out.it showed everything as in your pictures but couldnt connect to the net in pppoe mode.by the way i am using wifi connection.do you think that may be causing a problem?

Is wi-fi enabled or not in your modem

what servicename you entered it should be as : pppoe_0_35
did you entered username & password correctly or not DONT enter your portal ID & password there

@player
how about making those pics into a tutorial and having a separate thread for it? you could always link to it..it could be made a sticky thread also (hopefully)..
@dranirbanpoddar
If you still have problems, please post screenshots of your WAN page.

yup wifi is enabled & itsn working fine.i had entered my user id & not portal id.still it didnt work.is it so that in some parts of the country bsnl provides the service in exclusively bridge mode?i heard this from one of my friends..

here the screenshots of my wan page...........

here goes the final screenshot

as you can see in the final screenshot everything looks perfectly all right.but still it doesnt connect in pppoe mode.

in your 3rd pic enter bsnl username without @dataone.in & uncheck the "dial on demand" & NEVER POST A SCREENSHOT CLEARLY SHOWING YOUR BSNL USERNAME UNTIL YOUR DEFAULT PASSWORD IS NOT PASSWORD.after doing all this click on apply.it will take around a minute or 2 & then reboot modem.after that you should see a connect link below pppoe_35 service.click on connect.

oooooopssss by mistake i took the screen shot with the username written.but if i change the default password to my own created password then will it be a problem?

i meant to say that before posting the image cross out the username/password area with some image editing software like mspaint.in modem you have to use your actual bsnl username/password.also did you follow my suggestions in my previous post.

ya i did exactly as you said,but still it didnt work...........

does it say "AUTHENTICATION FAILURE" under STATUS?

yes it did

I got you ............just as i suspected but you didnt took a look to my post, you have entered the service name as pppoe_0_35_1 which is WRONG enter this

service name: PPPOE_0_35

hope this helps

which post are u talking about.can u post a link to that post pls?
entering PPPOE_0_35 didnt work either.all other setting were fine as u mentioned.

on entering PPPOE_0_35 the wan led on the modem glows,but pages are not opening.no im client gets connected

this is the post i am talking about i already mentioned that the service name should be this now coming to the problem you are almost there as you have said im messenger gets connected so just do this

go to control panel>>>network connections

right click on the connected network i.e. wi-fi or LAN and select properties
then go to TCP/IP settings and select the option use these DNS servers
enter these DNS servers

Primary DNS: 208.67.220.220
secondary DNS: 208.67.222.222

and you are ready to go you should now be able to browse the web sites

Changing The Dns Servers Worked Dude...thnx A Lot
