i've been keeping awake and have confirmed that since many ppl still don't switch their router on/off at the given time and hence end up with huge bills which they blame on MTNL, they've started disconnecting and reconnecting it for us from their end. Your connection will drop and reconnect within a few secs once between 12:21 and 12:23 am (which starts ur free night usage session) and again at 8:13 am (which is a lil funny coz it's beyond 8 am but it ends ur night usage session if u haven't already done so minimising the damage done to ppl not following instructions). So if u start ur night downloads before 12:23 and go off to sleep ur downloads will be interrupted although most clients resume after it reconnects but some don't.
thanx for replying waterloo. This is an interesting observation but unfortunately is not the prob in my case. Disconnections sometimes occur at 1am, 2am and sometimes even 3am. Again this occurs totally at random. It might happen thrice today and again might happen after a week. So there is no regularity of these disconnections. I havent installed any new software since the prob that might disconnect me. Also, im using the dialer to connect to mntl triband, thru bridged mode since im using a task scheduler. Its not the task scheduler too that can be causing this. Anywayz, its not a permanent thing and ill keep observing so that i can provide more info over here. I hope the session history page on the mtnl account comes back online and it will gimme a clearer picture as to when my conn is disconnected.
Secondly, cud anyone gimme a solution for the not getting greater than 28kbps speed problem, that i mentioned earlier??? This is a bigger concern. I checked many posts on this forum, regarding snr ratio and line attenuation and their normal range values. It seems that the values for my adsl router r normal. Only one thing caught my eye is that many subscribers of dsl nu@256kbps pack have a downstream of 280kbps and upstream of 256kbps. Whereas my down and upstream r both 256kbps. Also i dont know what a splitter looks like. Maybe the phone outlet im talking about is the splitter itself. All i know is one telephone no. is being used by 3 devices : 2 telephones and 1 adsl router. I hope that helps. Thanx for ur help guys.
