    Post again in BSNL forum if this zip file not useful.

    Better expand the LINUX OS version you use. Not familiar/known to all
    like Windows XP or Vista. or MAC.

    For settings in modem :

    For settings in computer.

    Run adsl-setup. Most likely it is already installed on your system. Otherwise you can also install it on yum enabled distributions like Fedora Core simply by:
    yum install rp-pppoe
    It asks questions like your login name and password (provided by BSNL), your ethernet interface (choose the default provided - eth0; works for most cases) etc. After the setup you should preferably reboot (or restart the network - service network restart) and you will find your DSL connection up and running.

    You can also manually bring up DSL connection by:
    ifup ppp0

    You can bring it down by:
    ifdown ppp0
    I use only windows xp pro sp3. No LINUX experience.

    Boss, you have given very little information, so

    *Do you connect using some kind of a dialer(Bridge mode) or its Always On type when modem is switched on, intenet connection.(PPPoE)


    If its in PPPoE, then you don't need to do anything is you have DHCP enabled. for some reason DHCP does not work, then you need to enter Network details manually. Press Main Menu Button (on the Panel) => System Settings => Network

    Ip:192.168.1.100
    Subnet: 255.255.255.0
    Default Gateway:192.168.1.1
    DNS Server1:208.67.220.220
    DNS server2:208.67.222.222

    The following link may help:
    RHEL5 Administration - 14.5.Â*Establishing an xDSL Connection

    I use Mandriva, there is an option in the control panel itself, but no idea about RHEL5

    Which one? Mandriva or RHEL5? Mandriva is free (Mandriv One, Mandriva Free) though there is commercial version viz Powerpack and Mandriva Enterprise where as RHEL5 is commercial like Mandriva Enterprise.
