Married!
I have BSNL Broadband in Kolkata. From the last 3 days, the modem is assigned 10.208.72.xx as IPs. My modem is connected to a Netgear router and the modem auto-connects. The default gateway of my modem is 192.168.1.1 and router is 10.0.0.1. When i enter the ip assigned by BSNL, it opens my modem homepage.

This is very strange and previously my ips starts with 117.x.x.x. Nothing has been changed in the settings of modem or the router.



Kindly help.

what is the IP, SUBNET and Gateway ? It's not clear from your above post. It seems your Gateway is actually wrong. Seems like its redirecting to your modem's management WebGUI

I have tried connecting the laptop with lan from the modem and still the same result.

UPDATE:
I have just searched the ip range, 10.208.72.xx belongs to USA. How can it be assigned by BSNL here in Kolkata. Is my line hacked?

The "technician" from BSNL came and reset the modem and it worked. I did the same previously and it didn't. Strange.
