OK....so finally I am able to get a BSNL Broadband connection. Previously BSNL used to give Modem at a rental charge but that has changed and now they are saying that they can provide Modem at 2100 INR which I know would be $hitty at best.
So please Suggest me good modems, other features like Wifi are welcome for me.

Budget - 3000 INR (Lower the better).

I am thinking about this one
TP-LINK TD-W8961ND 300Mbps ADSL2+ Wireless with ModemRouter
however I am not sure whether it would work with BSNL connection or not so please shred some light on that also. :)

best adsl wifi modem in my opinion for its price.as for configuration no need to worry.all adsl modems can work with any adsl connection in the world you just have to select vpi/vci values(for bsnl it is 0/35).btw my suggestion is instead of using the cd to configure do it manually as it will be better in the long run.

adsl modems like these are standalone devices.they don't need driver install like those usb 3g modems so they are OS independent.

How would I update the firmware ?? The download section of that router looks complicated to me, something don't work with something and all. Also do I have to do the firmware updates one by one or just one update of the latest version. Which update should I download ??
