BBG FN COMBO 600 speed is very slow

Posted: 27 Nov 2013 03:04 AM PST

I am getting a very low speed on BBG FN COMBO 600 connection. I have tested it in "http://speedtester.bsnl.co.in/" and it shows as "417.10kbps" = "52.14 KB/sec" which is very slow.

Expected is "2Mbps" = "200KB/sec". What should I do ? Can someone throw some light on this ? Has anyone experienced this earlier ?

Kailash Cable Broadband through wifi router

Posted: 27 Nov 2013 03:01 AM PST

hello all,

I am from Howrah, West Bengal and in my locality local cable operator provides Kailash cable broadband.

I am currently using BSNL broadband but thinking of switching it to cable broadband as service of BSNL is getting worse day-by-day.

 

I was in talk with my cable operator and he said that Kailash broadband is modem-less broadband service and LAN cable is directly inserted into the LAN port of PC. And to use the broadband every time I must open the browser to login first.

 

But I want to share the broadband connection with other laptops and smatphones also. As there is no modem, how can I use a wifi router to share the broadband?

 

Secondly, if I want to browse internet from smartphone, how can I do it without keep the PC running with logged in brower? Is there any wifi router with auto login option for Kailash broadband?

 

Guys please help me with these issues to solve my problems...cheers!

Problem with online bill payment

Posted: 27 Nov 2013 02:50 AM PST

I am unable to make bill payment online using acttv.in. I have reported this issue multiple times to customer care. They don't care to fix this issue. But they are behind to collect money when the payment date is due. 

I find it totally inconvenient to make payment in person as I don't stay at home in day time. Fix this issue urgently.

Saga of Light Hearted Bantering by Tarun Tejpal

Posted: 27 Nov 2013 12:12 AM PST

The editor-in-chief of a leading investigative magazine is being probed over claims that he sexually assaulted a woman colleague, a senior police official said on Friday, after the media, activists and politicians urged a criminal prosecution.
The case came to light after the victim complained in an email to a superior that Tarun Tejpal, founder of the award-winning weekly, Tehelka, assaulted her twice in a hotel elevator during a conference in the resort state of Goa this month.

 
Goa police investigate Tarun Tejpal after sex assault claim | Reuters
 
I had no idea they could do this... 
 

While she has not formally complained against Tejpal, police said they decided to act on the basis of the media reports of the leaked complaint, and that Tejpal could face charges of outraging the modesty of a woman and rape.

 
Media people can speak the same quality of bullshit as politicians...

Funny Videos, Images and Jokes

Posted: 26 Nov 2013 11:47 PM PST

MS staff

There was a pilot flying a small single engine charter plane, with a couple of very important executives on board. He was coming into Seattle airport through thick fog with less than 10m visibility when his instruments went out. So he began circling around looking for landmark. After an hour or so, he starts running pretty low on fuel and the passengers are getting very nervous. Finally, a small opening in the fog appears and he sees a tall building with one guy working alone on the fifth floor. The pilot banks the plane around, rolls down the window and shouts to the guy "Hey! Where am I?" To this, the solitary office worker replies "You're in a plane." The pilot rolls up the window, executes a 275 degree turn and proceeds to execute a perfect blind landing on the runway of the airport 5 miles away. Just as the plane stops, so does the engine as the fuel has run out.

The passengers are amazed and one asks how he did it. "Simple" replies the pilot, "I asked the guy in that building a simple question. The answer he gave me was 100 percent correct but absolutely useless, therefore that must be Microsoft's support office and from there the airport is just a while away."

Is Windows a virus?

No, Windows is not a virus. Here's what viruses do:
They replicate quickly Okay, Windows does that

Viruses use up valuable system resources, slowing down the system as they do so okay, Windows does that

Viruses will, from time to time, trash your hard disk Okay, Windows does that, too

Viruses are usually carried, unknown to the user, along with valuable programs and systems Sigh... Windows does that, too

Viruses will occasionally make the user suspect their system is too slow (see 2) and the user will buy new hardware Yup, that's with Windows, too

Until now it seems Windows is a virus but there are fundamental differences: Viruses are well supported by their authors, are running on most systems, their program code is fast, compact and efficient and they tend to become more sophisticated as they mature

So, Windows is *not* a virus

DLC (Exchange) doesn't support 2mbps connection.

Posted: 26 Nov 2013 11:35 PM PST

I have been opted for reliance broadband 2mbps plan from 8-9 months. On recently checking i found that the speed i am getting is of 1mbps connection.

On various complaint and issues. Technician visited my place and told me that their exchange doesnot support 2mbps connection. So switch to 1mbps.

 

I am amazed that if reliance cant provide connection above 1mbps speed, then why they offer plans of 2mbps,4 and 12 mbps when they dont have resources.

this is a mere fraud. Please help and suggest me how to get it rectified. As earlier i was getting download speed according to 2mbps connection. But what happened now. Plz help.

BSNL S4U+ v1.0 modem / adapter replacement

Posted: 26 Nov 2013 11:30 PM PST

My father is using a BSNL connection at home. The modem model name is S4U+ v1.0 having power rating 5.2 V 1A. Adapter used is 5.2V DC 1A.

The modem stopped working. BSNL guy checked out and said that the adapter has gone bad but they don't have any spares. We hand to replace it.

Now if I go to the market I am not sure if I'll get compatible adapter or even if I get one I am not sure if the modem is faulty. So I want to look at other options.

So my questions are:-
1. Are all DC adapters for modems standard ones or they vary a lot?

2. If the modern is faulty and I want to replace it which is the most compatible and easily available modem for BSNL wired broadband assuming that the S4U model is not avalanche in market.


Thanks for your help!

Airtel Broadband likely to soon offer 512kbps post FUP on all plans

Posted: 26 Nov 2013 11:11 PM PST

It seems finally Airtel is coming back to it's senses,they have decided to increases post FUP speed to 512 Kbps across all plans which will come into effect from 29th November.Just few days ago I saw a thread here mentioning the increase in speed to 512 kbps in Jaipur,I got excited and called the Customer Care just to inquire the same(i also wanted a PLAN CHANGE)..I think there is still a need to Increase their quota GB's of data provided in their initial plans.I was on 2 Mbps 10 GB FUP RS 700+taxes(100 calls free),I shifted to 1299+taxes with 15 GB( 8 Mbps) data and 1000  local calls free.I am not a heavy downloaded,my bandwidth usage is somewhere between 20-25 GB per months with a decent usage of phone so that plan suits well to me.

 

I just hope they should increase their FUP speed to at least 1 Mbps,specially in their high end plans!!

Gigabit Router + Modem

Posted: 26 Nov 2013 10:51 PM PST

I'm planning to get a Gigabit Router and modem for my MTNL connection wanted to keep the modem and router seperate to avoid any disconnection so took this route , I'm looked around and since my love for Asus Router is on higher side i see Asus RT N15U and Asus RT N16U , and it seems RT15U is nothing but N13U with gigabit and great looks only concern for me being the vertical stand and connection LAN cables to it.RT N16 have DD WRT router but it seems a quite a old router now but still kicking ass against the older model , also there is TP Link WDR 4300 750 which i dont have much info on

 

 

For modem i see TP Link 8817 , DLink DSL-2520U or something else should i look for multiple Ethernet port in modem or just 1 would be ok ?

Kovy stays top at Silverstone

Wednesday, 25 June 2008 17:26

Heikki Kovalainen completed an encouraging second day of testing for McLaren at Silverstone by remaining on top of the times at the end of Wednesday's session.

The Finn, who finished second and 0.3s behind Ferrari rival Felipe Massa on Tuesday, completed 72 laps in the MP4-23 with his best time from the morning session of 1m20.015s remaining unbeaten during the rest of the day.

It was also an impressive day for Toyota, whose strong form from Magny-Cours continues at Silverstone with Jarno Trulli setting the second fastest lap, almost 0.4s back on Kovalainen.

Wednesday, 25 June 2008 19:09

Heikki Kovalainen believes McLaren has made a definite step forward in competitiveness at this week’s Silverstone test and is confident the Mercedes-powered team will be able to challenge Ferrari at the British Grand Prix.

The Finn topped the times on Wednesday by 0.4s and declared himself satisfied with the way the car handled on both days.

“I think we’ve made a small step forward,” he told reporters at Silverstone.

“Looking at the runs, I was consistently able to set very competitive times; it wasn’t just one run that we did just to get a time. That is quite encouraging.

Former Champ: Schu could return to racing

Saturday 1st December 2007

Posted Image


Former F1 Champion Alan Jones reckons Michael Schumacher may be considering a comeback after an impressive test at Barcelona two week's ago.

Although Schumacher retired from F1 at the end of the 2006 season, the German returned to action with Ferrari at the Spanish track in the first of the winter tests.

The seven-time World Champion proved to be the man to beat as he dominated the timesheets during his two days of testing.

And although Schumacher has stated many times that his test does not mean he will be making a competitive comeback, Jones reckons the thought has to have crossed Schumi's mind.

"After nearly a year out of the saddle, I can image him thinking, 'Maybe I'd like to have another go.' It must be just like coming back from an extended Christmas break," Jones told Autosport.

"He used to take a couple of months off at the end of each season, so another few months won't make a big difference. Two or three years might have done.

"It's a win-win situation: Ferrari gains from his expertise and he enjoys it. And you can never rule out a comeback - he might be thinking, 'I'm really enjoying this!' Money won't be his motivation, it will be to prove a point.

"Niki Lauda was out for several seasons and came back and won the title. Michael could do the same."

Schumacher misses Massa's wedding day

Dec.3 (GMM) A representative for Michael Schumacher has played down speculation that he may have fallen out with his former Ferrari teammate Felipe Massa.



In the presence of many of his Ferrari colleagues, 26-year-old married his fiancee Rafaela Bassi, who is 27, in Sao Paulo last Friday, according to reports from Brazil and Italy.



Among the 800 guests were team bosses Jean Todt and Stefano Domenicali, as well as Mario Almondo, Aldo Costa and Luca Baldisserri -- but not Schumacher, his 2006 teammate.



Massa's countryman Rubens Barrichello also attended, reports said.



Days earlier, the former seven time world champion, Schumacher, won a karting event hosted by Massa in the southern Brazilian city of Florianopolis.



The German newspaper Bild am Sonntag said Schumacher had celebrated Massa's impending marriage with his former teammate and friend in the days prior.



A representative for Schumacher said: "Michael is currently in the United States for a family vacation."
