BSNL Broadband UT 300 R modem configuration

Hi, in this blog i have provided as much details as possible for the modem configuration. Use this info with your own risk. Dont blame me if something wrong happens. I cant take any responsibility. Note that bsnl does not support config thru modem - correct me if i am wrong and they support windows directly, you have to hunt for linux configurations. ( do they give support?? ;-) ). However, you can drop a comment saying that it worked.

This configuration enables you to work in any distro in Linux (which can connect to a LAN and all distros do provide such facility) or say even in windows. You dont have to dial, nor install pppoe or rp-pppoe. It just works out of the box. Sriram Karra in that thread ([Ilugc] BSNL Broadband connection not working in Linux(Debian Sarge) ) @ILUGC gave most of the details, i have just ksnapshotted it. For more details about the modem, look here. the pdf is here

BTW read the blog from last to first post. I should have published the last one (this one first), made a mess (does anyone have an answer to, how to correct this mess?)

One advantage of trying this out is that if something goes wrong, just reboot using the default settings and the mess u made, if u had wrongly configured is all gone :-). (for details about how to wipe out ur mess, check out the posts below)


Bye

Hi Varun,

This is Tarun from Hyd. Read ur blog and must say its reallu informative. Ive just got a new UT300RA modem. There is a strange problem im facing. When i open the config software through the browser i just get the menus and upon clicking the menus nothing happens!!! just can figure it out. and because of this im unable to "commit & reboot" hence my setting are lost. I would really appreciate if u could mail me at tanks07@rediffmail.com.
Thanks a ton
Tarun

Hi there,
it seems to be some(i don't exactly know) JavaScript +HTML combo error. I would recommend you to right click the tab link and click on "open in new window", it opens the target screen in new window, but atleast it shows what we expect it to show.

Reply back if it works.

Regards
Varun
