On the same note, can someone please tell me how to setup the BSNL modem, which comes with a LAN port and a wireless connection as well? The BSNL guys gave me a printout with some changes which were to be made in the Windows network settings, but I lost it and need to setup again as I have relocated

@bbalegere Huawei modems are known to get heated during operation. This results in the modem getting hung and the connection getting timed out.
