having an odd problem from today evening..

whenever i dial connection my dialer stops at "Verifying User Name and Password" and after sometime says "The Remote Computer failed to respond in a timely manner" with the option for redial.

sometimes it authenticates, and i can connect. like now.

any causes/solutions??

My modem is taking long time to get net connection . And the connected standard is G.dmt nowadays ; previously it was ADSL2+Auto . Does this mean cable noise ?

Local SNR Margin:	27.5 dB
Remote SNR Margin:	13.0 dB

the snr values seem okay...

even I face this issue sometime but this may be due server overloaded or some sort of issue like that ..so there's not much we can do about this I think.

 

[anirbandd]

i think i'll just visit the BB section and tell them personally...

 

[whitestar_999]

if adsl link is up but authentication part hangs/failed to respond then it is due to bsnl error so nothing you can do on your side except complaining.

@Allu Azad,manually select ADSL2+ mode to see if it helps.

Even am having the same issue though am on PPPoE, at certain times even though link is there, there is no internet connection. I tried changing to bridge mode and at random times while connecting I receive - "The Remote Computer failed to respond in a timely manner" and at other times it gets connected. Have lodged a complaint, lets see what happens.

there is no way out.unless you have an inside contact at airtel/bsnl broadband working in technical section & is willing to risk his job forget about it.

I had an uncle of mine posted in BSNL as SDO , and asked him about the same , he told me its not like switching off FUP for a particaular number.. its software based which is made in Banglore, and it automatically trips the speed down. So any other way out through which i can get this silly thing shut without ofc changing plan ( what i searched for and as per my knowledge now after talking to him ... its a sadistic thought that we cant do anythg ) still if any one knows a way out ...

 

[whitestar_999]

like you said no other way.why do you need unlimited anyway?i agree it sounds good but rest assured that after 3-4 months of downloading most of which will be just see once type you will get bored.just get a 2mbps night free plan & set torrent/download manager to download between 2-8AM & daily download ~3-4gb which in my opinion is sufficient.

Re: have wifi enabled modem WA1003A, want to connect desktop via lan and laptop through wireless

People does your modem also start restarting everytime it overheats? any solutions that you think have worked?

 

[Saahib]

Not really, whats your make of modem ?

 

[Renny]

My BB connection has been giving problems since almost 40 days - Constant disconnection and reconnection.

Lodged around 6 complaints which have all been closed (net works OK for a few days and then goes kaput), and several visits to the local exchange haven't changed things.

How can I escalate the issue? Which higher up to contact? (BSNL Bangalore)

 

[anirbandd]

directly go to the GM..

or the Chief Engg in the BB section and verbally assault them in as humane manner as possible.

I am using this modem to connect my laptop, samsung TAB and galaxy mobile simultaneously. The steps are as follows--
1.open your browser and type 192.168.1.1, give the password as "admin" (the username is already "admin").
2.click on setup and click on pvc0 (in the left panel ) see the first screenshot and put the values accordingly (including your broadband username and password),click apply.
3.Click on DHCP configuration (see screenshot 2), click apply.
4. Click on wireless (see screenshot 3), put any name on ssid field, this name will be the name of your wifi connection.
click "save all and restart ".
5. Click on advanced (Top menu ) and click on wireless security.Select the security level as WPA.Click on PSK string (bottom most) and put the value you want to be used as wireless password (see screenshot 4). click on "save all and restart access point" at the bottom. wait for 2 minutes.
6. Switch off the modem and turn it on.
You have configured it correctly. Your wifi will be detected by the name you gave in ssid and to connect it, you have to type the password you gave in psk string.
REMEMBER THE MODEM IS NOW ALWAYS CONNECTED AND YOU NEED NOT HAVE TO DIAL BSNL (you have given the username and password of the BSNL inside the modem in step 2 already,remember). This is true for desktop also.
NOTE:
You have to change the static ip of the desktop to dynamic one (control panel-->network connection-->local area connection (right click-->properties-->TCP/IP -->properties(see screenshots desktop ip1 and desktop ip2)).click ok.

HAPPY BROWSING.

PS. Use the software Netstumbler on your laptop to detect whether other people are broadcasting on the same channel. If so, use any one of the channel values 1,6 or 11 in step 4 (entering directly from step 1).

Plan : BSNL 750UL
From last 8-10 days, dsl link is not stable, modem automatically restarts.
Before this problem SNR margin was: 18-20, 24-26

^^ Your SNR value, attenuation is not impressive. Get your line checked.
By modem restarts, I think you mean the link gets lost and gest established again.

Yes..
What does these errors indicate?

 

[Vignesh B]

^^ Poor line quality.

 

[topgear]

this happens mostly in monsoon season.

 

[anirbandd]

this happened with me too.. i personally went there and gave them a piece of my mind. next day they came and replaced the drop line. now the SNR = 36dB, Attenuation = 10dB

 

[bajaj151]

^^What have u said? Because in my case, when they come, they say..Bhaiya net chal toh raha h...thodi bahut disconnection toh chalti rehti h...

And when I show them readings..(SNR & all)....they say...iss se kuch nhi hota..


Is Attenuation depends on distance between exhange and my home?

What should I tell them to CHANGE so that reading and connectivity improves?
