is it possible to do so ?

No. Why? Because of port binding.

at tikona it works, so im just curious about why its not working in airtel, can you explain me about port binding a little bit more?
thanks bro

anyone explains me what's the job of port binding ?

airtel does not allow it. it is as simple as that. every broadband connection is connected to that landline connection. tikona uses a totally different technology.

Airtel is DSL which means it's Broadband over Analog Line ( Landline ). Each Analog Line is multiplexed with a Digital Data Channel which is mapped to a particular ADSL Port. This ADSL Port is often binded with the username password of the PPPoE connection ( more like a mac binding ) due to which using different from a single ADSL port is not allowed.
However in case of Airtel , its not the port which is binded , it's the mac address of the ADSL modem which is binded. In recent days Airtel might have imposed Port + ADSL mac binding but i cannot justify it because i have left using Airtel since a long time.
Hope your question is answered.

i was able to change my ADSL router at will, I do not think it is bound to MAC address of ADSL router

 

[redlbug]

yeah,
accept with vlrus, i too change my routers, still it works for my id alone.

Then it's only port binded (like BSNL).
