how to setup BSNL broadband connection on ubuntu 10.10
 

can any one tel me how to setup BSNL broadband connection on ubuntu 10.10 plz....,


thanks inadvance...,

I don't rightly understand the question. Do you mean you have a BSNL landline with broadband or are you talking about the cellone 3G mobile broadband service that BSNL is providing? I can help if you let me know exactly what it is you need.

hi Inkit thank you for the reply...,
ha i have a BSNL broadband connection and i connected the ethernet cable to my lapi(lapi is having ubuntu 10.10)..., then it is showing the eth0 is "connection established"...,
but when i open the firefox and try to open google..., it is not opening...,

eth0 is up and running, is it getting the correct IP address ?

are you able to ping your local gateway, which I assume would be from your /24 network.

do this.

ifconfig eth0

what ever your ip address is a.b.c.d

now try to ping a.b.c.1

if you are able to do that, try to ping 4.2.2.2 ( this is an international DNS server)

If you can do both, means your Router is not setting the DNS server, for which you need to change your eth0 setting and forward all DNS to the gateway.

Use Networkmanager to set up a dsl connection if you are using a modem and not a router.
Otherwise if your router is configured to connect automatically, then set up a automatic connection in NetworkManager.

or use #sudo pppoeconf from konsole/terminal.

first u have to configure your modem in router mode,after this configaration in /etc/reslov.conf enter your dns server ip then u r able to connect internet
