Guys who dont have a UTSTAR may also use these steps coz all modems have this page/settings accessible via http://192.168.1.1/

Dude first of all thanks for the the valuable info u've given.
But sry 2 say i didnt find REMOVE option under WAN link.

I clicked on Bridged mode and put settings as per ur guidelines, then I went to TOOLS-> Misc.-> Save and reboot

My router got rebooted, then I checked Device Info on 192.168.1.1 under STATUS-> Device Info, but I found-
Under WAN-> Virtual Circuit PVC-0, Connection- Disconnected with IP add, subnet mask, default gateway N/A(Not Available)

I think my broadband conn. doesnt support Bridged mode, also I made connection in Network connection as per ur instructions, I tried to connect, it got connceted with message->
Triband is connected
Speed 100 Mbps

I again changed settings back to PPPoE mode, then PVC- 0 is connected and I got IP add, Subnet mask, Default gateway assigned from MTNL.

[I made this post with PPPoE connection, as I m unable to surf any page with Bridged mode]


Here are the snapshots->

I think I am using different version of UT 300R2U(T-KD 318 EUI) its having lights on front deck and not on top deck as in another version of UT 300R2U. I can't imagine how chinese people name 2 diff models with same name.

a. D-Link 502 T It gave me some problems initially, but now its fine. I guess i was missing the right setting. but now its rock solid, and stable.

GLB 502T is a gr8 one...I'm using it since one year and w/o any problems...I used it in bridge mode from last 10 months and didn't find any problems except that some times some websites don't open for some time...but I don't know whether that problem is b'coz of the modem or bridge mode or local exchange or the MTNL as a whole...
