Yesterday from afternoon onwards, my net stopped working all of a sudden.
What was happening was i could not browse any site. I tried with two different modems and the same thing was happening.

Pinging to bsnl dns gave 75% loss. so i tried using open dns. even that was around 75% loss. so it means open dns does not work properly for bsnl users?

today the net started working now all of a sudden. what could have been the problem? :huh:

want to know so next time something like this happens i can rectify it.
 
Packet loss is generally a network problem on Side of ISP. the reason could be a congested link with overloaded traffic or broken routes.

The only which you can do about it is register a complaint, rest is the ISPs job to fix
 
also something i saw now...

getting http speed of around 60 -100 kb browsing. but if i start torrents it disconnects and cant connect for more than 5-10 minutes. :@
even enabling encryption on torrents does not work.

checked speed in speedtest and it shows 30kb upload and download. :S
what is happening?

havent checked http downloads yet.
 
Go to ADSL settings -> ADSL Modulation, Change value to G.Dmt, I was facing similar issue n G.Dmt mode works fine now, using Huawei modem.
 
^ it was g dmt as always. tried with two diff modems and two os's - win xp and slax.

only thing i cant run torrents now. it just disconnects. :(
 
Seems bsnl's pipes in your area are saturated i.e overload. seems a temporary problem to me. Did you contact NIB?
 
I am extremely sorry to derail the topic here, guys do you know how i can get the BSNL connection installed at my location at the earliest.

The thing is, its been more than a month since i applied for the connection, i have been trying to get those people to look into my application but in vain.. its like a complete non responsive organisation. my location is not remote as well.. the house next to mine already has a connection.. i don't know whats keeping them from not installing the damn phone line. Any suggestions towards this is well appreciated.

PS: I have tried contacting all possible people related to this, even i have lodged complaint against these non responsive idiots to BSNL itself and the same to Consumer care website as well. I don't know what else i should do? should i opt for other ISPs (Airtel is ruled out, only other choice is Tata Indicom.)?

cheers,
Jay
 
IMO airtel is the best.

BSNL is shit.

In my case i got a connection for my office . I had to go to the exchange and make an application for this. After a month's time of struggle they gave me connection .
It just worked for 2 months and for the next 1 or 2 months i am very doubtful whether the connection worked !!! since the person who was working in my office wasnt using net for about 2 months, he dint inform me regarding the connection failure.

When i came to know this i requested those dogs to restore the connection . They dint care about that. Finally i called the CC and threatened them that i want the my connection disconnected. They simply gave me some phone number and asked to place the request with them . WTF.

Then finally i asked my accountant to stop paying the bill. I dint even call the number the CC gave. It has been 4 months since i paid the bill. Not a single call i got from the dept..

I had been paying Rs.250 for 2 or 3 months without internet connection.

Actually clearly speaking , these BSNL guys dont have any courtesy. They are like either take it or leave it.

So just forget this good for nothing ISP
 
Ha ha . That wont have any effect. Those idiots never care about all these. Better go there directly and meet the PRO guy.

Give him left and right if needed....
 
^ I have BSNL broardband connection since it launched in India, never had any problem. Further I regularly download at least four English movies daily and lots of HD stuff in 2am to 8am at constant download speed of 230KBPS. Currently I have 2MB connection in HOME 500 plan.

@OP may be you had a temporary problem.
 
Happened to me twice or thrice in about two years of using BSNL broadband.

Its basically an issue with the ISPs gateway. Nothing much you can do, just sit tight and do some offline gaming.

If its a regular issue then you need to contact your exchange though that's very unlikely..
