Airtel Fiber
I applied for Airtel's Fiber connection yesterday, 499 plan. I paid 1769 for it, inclusive of all charges and taxes. It was installed today and is working fine at the moment. Have few queries regarding it so please help me out here.
1. A Nokia router was installed, details regarding which I'm unable to find on the Internet except this Certificate If somebody has similar router and has it's manual or know where I can get one, it would be mighty helpful of you.
2. In the router's interface, I could see my user ID (******_dsl@airtelbroadband.in one) but not the password and the guy who came to install it didn't tell me either. What's the default user password and how can I change it?
3. There's a USB type A port on the rear panel of the router. Can it be used for attaching NAS?

These are the ones on the top of my mind right now. Will update with more as I have them.

@Rudick Under Maintenance->Log, search for the below lines:

TR069: SetParameterValues(InternetGatewayDevice.WANDevice.1.WANConnectionDevice.1.WANPPPConnection.1.Password=**********

TR069: SetParameterValues(InternetGatewayDevice.WANDevice.1.WANConnectionDevice.1.WANPPPConnection.1.Username=*********@airtelbroadband.in

These are your PPPOE username and password.
 
I am considering switching to Airtel from Jio.

1. For 999 plan what is the initial charges ?
2. What kind of router airtel will provide ? Single or Dual band ?
3. Is stb box included ?
 
@Notorious

1. Pay for 3 months (Rs.3536 including GST) and get installation free.
2. Nokia G-2425G-A is being given nowadays. It is a dual band router with good range.
3. STB is not included. If you want, you would have to pay Rs.1500 deposit to get the STB. Moreover, you have to pay minimum Rs.153 each month to be able to use it.
 
Still looking for user manual for the Router. Any leads would be appreciated.
Is it possible to change DNS addresses to Google's or OpenDNS ones to have more 'free' access on this Airtel connection? If yes then how?
 
unable to access that as the page shows nothing of that sorts, just a loading animation keeps spinning. How can I change the PPPoE password?

@venkataramani STB isn't given free with the connection. You have to buy it as a separate DTH connection by paying Rs.1500 as security deposit. You will also have to pay Rs.153 minimum every month if you want to use the STB.
