Dear techies,
I do have the problem as that of aktmnr.
I have a BSNL Dataone ADSL 256 kbps unlimited connection to my home PC located at Anthiyur, Erode District, Tamil Nadu. The telephone route length from the telephone exchange to my home is about 6 km. I have this connection from December 2006 ( more than 18 months). Everything was fine till about mid March 2008. I used to get about 250 kbps bandwidth speed and about 32 kbps download speed.
Suddenly, from mid March I could not connect during night hours starting from about 6 pm to morning about 7 am. ADSL light in my modem would start blinking by 6 pm and would not hold. Sometimes it would hold for a minute or two and can connect during this one minute but would last for about one minute only. This problem consistently starts by evening 6 to 6.30 pm, lasts through out the night and get goes by 6 to 6.30 am in the morning.
BSNL broadband team tried their best for the past 3 months even till midnight by changing various modems, and laying new cables but could not set it right. The real problem is they are not able to diagnose the problem. They say it is due to distance from the exchange;I could not agree this as I had a really awesome connection for more than one year before this problem started.
I request you to suggest a solution to this problem.
Thanks.
