Broad Band

Hi, Will you please guide me to install the Borad Band modem (UT Starcom, provided by BSNL) in XP. I have installed it my ME operating system but not able to install it in XP.One more thing, my explorer is very slow in XP, is there any "Daba" for it?sanjitcx

Just connect the LAN cable to the PC and boot up up.If u are using the connection on a single PC, rt. click on my network places > properties > create a new connection > next > next > manually > next > b.band conn. req user,pass > next and go on.place a shortcut on desktop. You're done ! Reboot pc and modem.If using in multiuser env., u have to configure in management interface 192.168.1.1 and enter required details, save settings and reboot ur pc and modem. I hope this helps.And for the slow explorer, set security & cookies to default in options, connection should not be set to proxy. Defrag your drive and check for spywares and worms.

BSNL supplied me a UT Starcom UT-300R2 modem and a CD containing PPPoE software. I installed the software and the modem was ready for data transfer.Best,:: Sanjoy Bandopadhyay

Hi sanjitcx,

The Calcutta Telephones page on Broadband explains the procedure. Check out this link - http://www.calcuttatelephones.com/dataoneinstall/menu.html

please do not use BSNL supplied PPPoE s/w as it is buggy and responsible for frequent disconnects and IP lease problems. It is always better to use winxp created dialler in a single pc, or use the modem interface in case of multiuser environmant. People just use the BSNL PPPoE s/w, get bad performance and thrash BSNL for pathetic performance. Wake up guys !!
