0 Using / Configuring / Connecting (BSNL) ADSL modem / router with other Internet connection (Sify , Airtel , Digital ,Beam , Tata ,Tikona )


I used BSNL Internet via phone line through a ADSL modem ( UTSTARCOM WA3002G4 ) which has 4 Ethernet ports , 1 phone line port and 1 wifi antenna

I had to quit BSNL because of their fraud billing , which i have proved to the Junior telecom officer(J.T.O), still i received no response . Some employees also say that leave the connection if you have so many problems , as if they were doing a favor to their users  ( that was the best response i could get ) .
They are still sending bills even though my phone and Internet are disconnected .
Am using Digital Internet , it like sify where you have LAN cable directly coming to your computer.It uses web login via its IP address . They also have set a IP address and subnet mask , along with default gateways , DNS 1 and DNS 2 .
I planned to buy a router but then i recalled i had a ADSL WiFi router / modem , after seeking suggestions from few network Admin's and Google search i presumed that it won't work .
Finally i dropped to few threads where few guys said it works with Sify .

Coming to SETTINGS :

First of all reset your modem via a hole at bottom , near heat sink holes ,  a circular hole outside the square pattern of other holes .
Note down all your IP config from accessing Network and sharing settings > manage network connection > Local area network > properties > IP4 properties . Note them
Now set to obtain automatically ( U need to do this to access modem , once you are done with modem settings restore them back to same ) , you will also need them in configuring modem so preserve them .

Modem settings >
STEP 1 >>JUST connect the modem to computer via its LAN cable RJ45 ( In my case used LAN 1 port)

STEP 2>>Access settings via 192.168.1.1

STEP 3>>In modem settings go to LAN settings leave the IP and Subnet settings intact to 192.168.1.1. and whatever , just change DHCP to " Disable DHCP server" checkbox .Save it

STEP 4 >>Now in DNS  , type your primary DNS in DNS 1
 type DNS 2 in secondary DNS .Save it

STEP 5 >>Then go to routing ,
remove the automatically obtain check from checkbox " default gateway "
Add your default gateway in the box that appears below after unchecking .Save it

DO NOT FOLLOW STEP 4 & STEP 5 if you dont have any IP configuration in network settings of your computer or if it is set to " obtain automatically " .

Step 6 >> Add a security to your WAN network via Wireless section in modem settings  , try adding WPA 2 or WPA 2 PSK  , you can also use other , then AES or TKIP anything you wish to use , add a 10 digit key in numbers as required for WPA2 . Save it

STEP 7 >> Shut down the modem , restore your IP config in Network and sharing settings > manage network connection > Local area network > properties > IP4 properties .

STEP 8 >> Now connect your Internet cable (RJ45) pin to your router ( In my case used LAN 4 port)

I also use it for my smartphone HTC desire
for that i had to add the same setting i use in my LAN IP4 in my phone to access Internet i will post procedure on same in next post .
Now i can use one device at a time , as my Internet connection does not support 2 devices to access at a time , if your ISP allows this you can, but its wirelessly and i can ask Internet guys to give me the multiple device login service will post on the same in next few days .
