Why this thread?

So often, we have some random thought or point to make/discuss , and I personally sometimes skip it as I feel it is not worthy of a new thread & feel its unfair to hijack an existing thread...

Would recommend creating new thread for any big news & as usual we have threads for specific series/tournaments.. This is for something general random posts related to cricket...Kind of the Cricket Offtopic thread...

Will start with one post

I using bsnl but bsnl now making lot of trouble. so i decided to change ISP. already applied for reliance. they take 1300INR cheque, 1month passed still they did not give connection. whenever i call them they give some lame excuse. now i saw airtel 4g has 128kb/sec unlimited plan after FUP. so i called airtel and they said they will send someone to check the internet speed from my home. if i am satisfy with the internet speed i can apply for the connection. so shall i go with airtel 4g? only one thing is confuse is that the connection is wireless, i am not sure will the internet speed constant or go down frequently.

I have a tata docomo number 9045961466 (UP west).

 

I am using ASUS fonepad & I have activated internet 2G data pack to use the internet in my tablet.

 

yesterday, I went New Delhi & surprisingly, my internet stopped working. I was not able to do anything.

I also have vodafone number which I use in my mobile. It was working fine (in mobile).

 

Does Tata Docomo internet not work in Roaming? But I think it work. I also have tata photon plus which I bought in 2011 when I was in new delhi. Now the days, I am in Muzaffarnagar, UP & my tata photon plus works well.

Then why tata docomo internet stopped working in New Delhi? Or do I have to do any specific setting?

 

Please let me know because I have to go New Delhi again withing few days & I dont want to face this problem again.

Starting this thread as there isn't one for this TV series.  I've completed the Miniseries and Season 1.  Felt boring initially but got interesting later on.  Starting season 2 today.

So I usually finish my bandwidth in 20-25 days. For the rest 5-10 days I use SOD. This cycle, I get following error while opening SOD page

"Unexpected Error

The Service Selection Portal encountered an unexpected error while processing your request."

 

Any idea why is this happening?

Rabba Main Kya Karoon story revolves around two brothers Arshad Warsi & his younger cousin brother Akash Chopra who is getting married lavishly in a typical Indian style in Delhi. Movie releasing on 2nd August 2013.

 

I got confused for a while. Akash Chopra in this one is not the cricketer. 

What to Expect (And What We Want) From Windows Blue
 

 

More tile sizes: If Windows Phone can support three tile sizes (small, medium and large), then Windows 8 should absolutely support them, too. The tiles are much larger on Windows 8, so smaller sizes would be easy to tap with a fat finger. It will also make for a more personalized Start Screen, which the Windows 8 Modern UI is all about.

Updated Mail: The Windows 8 Mail app needs some extra power. Simplicity is great, but some basic additions would help it be a more useful tool. Microsoft should add support for POP3 accounts and incorporate features available in Outlook.com like drag and drop. A report from ZDNet suggests that this might come prior to the Windows Blue update.

Ability to use multiple browsers in Modern UI: This is a small request, but it addresses what can become a major annoyance in Windows 8 if you ever use more than one browser. Right now, even if a browser is available as a Windows 8 app, it will only work in the Modern UI environment if it is set as your default browser. If it's not your default browser, then it will open in the desktop. That goes for the built-in IE10 browser and other offerings like Google Chrome.

Boot to desktop: This is one of the most common Windows 8 demands, especially for business users. It should definitely be an option for Windows 8 Pro users, who do most of their work in the desktop environment. It's thoughtful and will make a large number of users happy without much work. But it should absolutely not be an option for Windows RT, where the opposite should be true.

Make it possible to manage everything in Modern UI: Alternatively, if you want to stay in the Modern UI 100 percent of the time, Microsoft should let you stay there 100 percent of the time. Especially since the Modern UI is the future of Windows. Microsoft should have the Task Manager, Windows Explorer and Control Panel available as Modern UI apps. You should be able to change your screen resolution and manage your files without being forced to the desktop.

I have a Asus RT N13U. This router has a USB port & has a service built in to download via torrents to an attached pendrive or hard disk.

 

I have not got around to trying this. Mostly use my laptop to download torrents.

 

Anyone out there using this service on a router to download directly to an attached storage device ? How convenient is this ?

 

Would changing the firmware of the router to open source firmwares like DD-WRT or Tomato help in any better way ?

I have seen many people that they are facing the some basic problem's ..........

Let me Explain u very clearly .......

1 . On which server they are hosted .. weather they are in NIB -1 or NIB -2 ?

if u got a username as "" priya_hyd "' then u r in NIB-1
or if u got a username as "" maxer123 "" then u r in NIB-2

please Remember that in which server u r hosted this is very important in some issues

u can get another way find it.......
if ip address starts with 59.xxx.xxx.xxx then u r in NIB -1
or ip address starts with 117.xxx.xxx.xxx then u r in NIB -2


2. Username and Portal Is are Different ?

This a problem faced by NIB -2 Users only .................. :whistle:

U got a portal ID ( eg..."" yar85216052008 " ) --- this a username to check the usage details for NIB- 2 users only ....

then whats the username then ......... the username u usually ( eg .. an865236541 ) is the PPPOE username which connects u to internet only

Both the passwords are by default are same .........
please try to chages then ........... keep the different password for both ID's

3 . Check the usage ?

For NIB-1 the Ip address to check the usage is ?

10.240.240.195
i have not much idea about other ip but this works ...
hey the usage deatils are update very fastly about 5 min delay .........

For NIB-2 users .....

data.bsnl.in
bbservice.bsnl.in

u need to use the portal ID to login ...... and portal password .........

NOTE : the usage is updated very lately .... takes about a day or more i can't garenty a day ........

Please Be carefull if u r a limited plan user mainly H500 .........

4 . Whats is Modem's IP and Internet IP ?
U should know the Difference .........

Bsnl will give an ip address to connect to internet ... which will be like 117.199.228.159 this is like a address to u in internet .........

But there is an Ip u should remember 192.168.1.1 .......
this is used in locally to configure the modem through Web browser .........
when u try to open this on web browser 192.168.1.1
u will get login POP-UP

By deafult
username : admin
password : password / admin

5 . Whats u r Net speed ?

There may threads wasting on this topic ........ :wall::wall::wall:
The speeds are limited ...... u must accept it ...... :thumbsup:
Don't trust the speeds in speedtests ..... :whistle:

If u are in Home 750 u should know the u r speed is 256 kilo bits per second (kbps) or 32 KBps (Kilo Bytes Per Second ) .........

If u are in H 500 Plan u speeds can go upto 2 mega bits per second (mbps) or 256 KBps ( Kilo Bytes per second ) ..... Please don't argue with this ..... this is proved .........

6 . How to configure the username and password into the modem ?

This is not recommended for Limited plan users and who download files from the Rapidshare and other hosting services ....

Form this time u should know how to login into the modem .......

here is the Video Tuitorials .......


7 . How to secure wi-fi ..... ?????

Dataone WebMail see the down there ...... u see some PPT's ........

There is some thing similar like this ......


In the ppts they shown u to select the WEP please don't use WEP ,,, use WPA .. for security




Please Don't select WEP ,,,, use WPA and above because WEP can be hacked very easily ......... :cool2:

8 . Enhance u r Browsing speed ?

This is don't tell u that u r speeds are increased ..... :cry: :cry: :cry:

There is one concept that will perform u r browsing speeds higher ... by changing the DNS server ......

For normal users who use yahoo , gmail and other popular sites don't need this tweak ........

This is for Pro and People who will explore the internet ...........

Here it is explained very clearly ..... .... http://broadbandforum.in/bsnl-broadband/39049-dns-servers/


9 . Damm Serious thing about the Billing in H500 or any other night unlimited plans ? (Especially for NIB-2 Users)

Please take it seriously ........ because i was charged 45,000 rs for BSNL for not knowing this INFO .......

I u connect to internet before 2 PM and used the entire night .... then the usage was not calculated as free usage ......... U should Dis-connect and connect after 2 AM ( For safe side connect at 2.20 ) .....

For example -- u have used 2 gb in normal usage ...... then one day u connected to internet before 2 PM and used the internet and downloaded about a Gb then u disconnected at 6M ... u might be thingking that from 2-8 AM its free .. So u will not be charged that 1 Gb into the Account Even when u see the Data.bsnl.in for usage ... the page is not updated untill 1-3 days ..

After 2-3 days u will see that 3 Gb was charged into the account ...... Please be carefull about it

Specially NIB-2 users .......

No one can help in this matter ..... this very serious issuse ...

I have probably watched most of the older seasons on Star World but going through it from scratch considering it is a show that is still running and doing extremely well.



It is not the most exciting of shows but it does well nonetheless. I like the primary character because of his stupid smile and the way he handle things while narrating it to audience how he does it.
