Thread: mtnl broadband excess billing and unauthorized usage

there is no. of unauthorized usage of broadband connection in mtnl and especially if it is new connection.and if u report mtnl officials will turn deaf ears which shows their involvment.
i was given modem which was not mtnl stamped and later they were refusing to take it back.
my usage details shows 64 mb usage in just 36 mints.
later i found the solutions.
after taking connection first thing u should do is:

lock ur telephone by using dynamic locing facilty
124 (code) (code)
code is 4 digit u want to keep
all calls lock 123 code 4
open 123 code 1/0

second change modem password which is by default ur ca no.

go to register.mtnldelhi.in
then open ur 192.168.1.1 for delhi which is modem configuration and change the password with same as register.mtnl.in

also change password at view bill segment of mtnl web site.

I HOPE EVERYONE SHOULD DO THIS AND STOP UNAUTHORISED USAGE BY MTNL OFFICIALS.IT WILL HELP WHO GO TO GOVT. FOR ECONOMICAL SERVICE AND FALL IN TRAP

I have two mtnl connections - home and office. Both 500 combo.

I am using modems in bridged mode (need to dial the connection manually) at both home and office.


I am able to logon with my home username and password when at office and vice versa.

I do not think this should be possible as the username and password is supposed to valid for the particular line only.

This propbably shows the invovlement of mtnl people.


please let us know if nebody has tried this.
