hi shushrukh,

could you explain this process in a little more detail? If i have a wifi modem cum router with a dsl port ad 4 ethernet ports and i have a wimax connection with static IP, then how can i achieve Wifi for the house?

Also, how does one access the console screen of the wimax modem and how to change the settings for CINR and also how doe one connect to a different tower?

any help would be much appreciated.

I have been trying different scripts and .exe s on the net to configure my AN1020-21 modem to automatically restart but with no results and i have lost over 1GB bandwidth during nights when i am asleep. I also tried scheduling macro programs but the reliabiltiy is very low.
I have seen that people on this site are very helpful in sharing solutions and solving problems, will be grateful to someone who can care for this post.

Thank U,
Raja

Hey sahyadri .. have you tried updating the firmware on it ?

DC Files - Huawei E1750

Ya, I tried changing the connection mode to HSD then Hybrid.
But, the speed was nothing more than 70-75kBps while downloading an 8MB file. I mean not even 1mbps :/
Thanks for the reply.

P.s What are the other options available in less price, I was wondering :D and no I don't require mobility :P

Best firewall is the ZoneAlarm PRO Firewall. The features are like License can be used on up to three PC, Free version upgrades, Two-way Firewall, Compatible with anti-virus software, Complete Package and so on.

From the my point of the view the best browser is Mozilla fire fox. Because there are so many features available like it provides more security. it is awesome browser. it gives the protection against the virus and firewalls. The speed is very high than other browsers. provide the facility of the add-ons.

Best anti virus is Kaspersky Internet Security because there are so many features available like Real-time proactive protection against all Internet threats Improved. New Safe Surf feature for unparalleled online security. Easy-Access Desktop gadget. System Watcher technology. Feature-rich and effective Parental Control Improved.

Looks like you'll have to pay compulsory Rs.30/- no matter you use it or not, same way like caller tunes are charged.
I would say, very dis-heartening scheme in such a competitive market :-(

@ mgcarley

Can you please reply to this thread? :D

As per your original speed test, your line is capable of getting the 320kbit/s that you are paying for - however a number of factors could be slowing your connection down whilst doing the speed test, including but not limited to software updates in the background and forgetting to turn off your torrents/downloads whilst performing the test, otherwise there is every chance that there is congestion at your exchange or something like this, but the easiest way to know for sure is to download a file from a website (let's say microsoft.com for arguments sake).

If it comes through at about 30-35kbyte/s, then your line and plan are performing as expected. If you only get 10kbyte/s as you are saying your speed is now, then there may be some other underlying problem.

Obviously, you shouldn't cheat and run downloads in the background then run a speedtest: the speedtest has to be the only thing running, otherwise your result will be drastically skewed to show you're only getting 0.10mbit/s, invoking sympathy from this crowd but being basically incorrect/misleading, because with this speed, you can only reasonably expect to do one or the other (surfing or downloading), so if you have anything running in the background (even, say, a Youtube clip in another tab within your browser) stop & close it first.

Also ,torrents, being a P2P technology, are usually set to absolute lowest setting when it comes to Quality of Service (QoS or traffic shaping - this is not something you can change), whereas IPTV and VOIP are usually set at the highest setting. Normally users shouldn't notice this sort of thing, but if your torrents are coming in slowly, it could be because of this, otherwise the more likely explanation is that the seeder(s) has his upload speed set very low (or he doesn't have much bandwidth either), or else it could be due to congestion on the network somewhere.

Otherwise generally speaking they are obliged to provide you an average of 80% of your plan speed and if you can't get this by downloading a file from a normal website, whether Microsoft.com or Filehippo.com then as I said, something may be wrong with your service and they need to fix it. If you want to test downloading a file from within India, the most local file I can think of is this one http://ubunturelease.hnsdc.com/10.04...sktop-i386.iso - this is physically hosted in Mumbai, so you should get at least 30kbyte/s from it.

Also, for the record, if your plan is 320kbit/s, then the MAXIMUM speed you will get is about 40kbyte/s - not 50-70. For that you WILL need to upgrade your plan to at least 512kbit/s.

you are welcome. i am glad you liked it

frc needs to be done only once on first time. and if you want to use it on the mobile than you can buy a sim only you don't need to buy data card. and i think bsnl is providing unlimited data plan for 6 month at the price of 4200/-.

Happy to be of some use. :)

Ask the line man to fix the line. Tell him to remove joints and non insulated parts.

Federer beats Murray surprisingly easily, 6-4, 6-2.

Federer pushed him right from start, his forehand today was amazing with pinpoint accuracy (touchwood). That put Murray on backfoot and he made many unforced errors.

I guess when Federer's forehand works noone can beat him. But from 1-2 yrs, his forehand has been culprit for his defeats.

Btw I think I saw Diego Maradona sitting with Federer's wife (Mirka)
