Condition of MTNL box in your society

Posted: 30 Dec 2013 02:26 AM PST

Guys so frustrated with MTNL that I am starting a thread for MTNL box location in your society. I have uploaded this pic just now after several phone call to MTNL broadband guy, AM, SDO, GM & what not however no action is taken and broaband kepps coming anfd going off. This is the worst condition and water is dripping from top from a air conditioning duck.

I am also going to sent an email with this pic to the mtnl so called babus so that they can see what the hell is going on in my society.

 

Airtel speed sucks and they have fup but atleast in my society they have a decent box installed with proper wiring.Here you can see the MTNL wiring and the box does not even has a close lid.

 

If you guys have the same or the worse scenario do share you experience with the pic.

Hey friends,

 

I installed BSNL BB with Combo ULD 800.

 

AS per plan speed should be max. 1mbps upto 6gb. But i am getting 1.6mbps speed as per speed test (measured on speedtest.net). How it can be possible. Can any 1 answer??????????????????????????????????????????????

 

BSNL has taken 2 month to install Landline but bb installation is very quick (2 days after application).

 

Till now i am satisfied. I am in Vadodara, Gujarat region.

Open DNS after login page IP change of Reliance broadband

Posted: 29 Dec 2013 10:38 PM PST

Hello,

 

As you all know Reliance changed their broadband login page IP. Since then I am unable to use Open DNS or Google DNS as the new page doens't open even with the new IP (220.224.142.229). Earlier I used Open DNS and logined using the older IP 10.239.89.15. That IP no longer works.

 

I now have to change the DNS in the router everytime I need to login and then again switch back to Open DNS after successful login - which is a pain. Does anybody know how to open up the login page with Open DNS?

 

Any IP which works with Open DNS or some kind of trick or script?

 

Thanks!

The Offtopic Thread

Posted: 29 Dec 2013 10:18 PM PST

With the recent spurt of people going offtopic, I saw the need of this thread. :P

Here you can go offtopic as much as possible. Post whatever you want, with just one condition that at least post something sensible that someone else would reply. Don't just post crap.

Thread hijacking is totally allowed here. :rofl:

That being said, I'd like to post this.

Today, while coming to office, I was listening to Radio Mirchi, and there the RJ was playing songs dedicated by the parents for their child(ren).

There's one father who dedicated the song "Kajra Re" for his son. There's another father who dedicated the song "Dhoom Machale Dhoom" for his son. Now, after those two requests, there was one mother who dedicated the song "Jaadu Jaadu" for her daughter.

Now we can see the real contrast in the choice of songs between the dads and the mom (or for the son and the daughter). What do you think which was it? Or does it indicate some kind of specific mentality?

Status of Hayai Broadband

Posted: 29 Dec 2013 09:29 PM PST

Potentially troublesome topic, might be banned for posting this...but someone has to take the initiative.

 

 

just wanted to know what Hayai aka our mgcarley is doing nowadays? how much has hayai progressed ? infrastructure, approvals? ar there any customers who can share their experiences with their service.

 

 

Please note: this thread has not been started to humiliate anyone, start a brawl again...it is just a light hearted conversation if anyone is interested.

Identity Thief

Posted: 29 Dec 2013 08:46 PM PST

Unlimited funds have allowed Diana to live it up on the outskirts of Miami, where the queen of retail buys whatever strikes her fancy. There's only one glitch: The ID she's using to finance these sprees reads "Sandy Bigelow Patterson"... and it belongs to an accounts rep who lives halfway across the U.S.

With only one week to hunt down the con artist before his world implodes, the real Sandy Bigelow Patterson heads south to confront the woman with an all-access pass to his life. And as he attempts to bribe, coax and wrangle her the 2,000 miles to Denver, one easy target will discover just how tough it is to get your name back.

Fernando Alonso News and Updates

Posted: 29 Dec 2013 07:50 PM PST

Fernando Alonso topped the timesheets on his return to Renault today at Jerez lapping the Spanish circuit a tenth clear of countryman Pedro de la Rosa. It was an impressive return to the team for Alonso as he put in 70 laps with a best time of 1:19.503s.

It was a busy day for the McLaren Mercedes team with de la Rosa putting in 111 laps in his MP4-23 while Kovalainen sixth fastest, completed 130 laps in the new machine.

Kimi Raikkonen and Felipe Massa were third and fifth fastest respectively for Ferrari with Nico Rosberg running well in his FW29 with the fourth fastest time.

Sebastian Vettel and Sebastien Bourdais proved closely matched for Toro Rosso Ferrari with the seventh and eighth fastest times while Mark Webber was ninth best in the Red Bull Renault.

Kazuke Nakajima rounded out the top ten in his Williams Toyota ahead of Timo Glock in the leading Toyota TF108 and Giancarlo Fisichella in the Force India Ferrari. Kamui Kobayashi brought up the bottom of the timesheets in the second Toyota while Super Aguri Honda did not run after problems encountered yesterday.
Renault continued its preparations for 2008 today with Fernando Alonso taking over driving responsibilities from Nelson Piquet.

It was an important day as it was Alonso's first appearance in Renault colours since being confirmed as a 2008 race driver in December.

Arriving at the Jerez circuit yesterday evening, the Spaniard spoke to the engineers to understand how the first day of the programme had gone, and to prepare for his two days work with the team.

His first day behind the wheel gave the Spaniard the opportunity to drive a car in accordance with the 2008 electronic regulations, and most significantly without traction control. It was also a good opportunity to reacclimatise to the team with which he has worked for six years in the past.

At the end of the session, having covered 70 laps, the overall result was an encouraging first day as Alonso topped the timesheet with a best lap of 1:19.503s.

Fernando Alonso
"The result of my first day in the car is encouraging. I could not wait to drive again, but at the same time I was a bit tentative. I quickly settled back in to the team and everything went well. We made good progress throughout the day, but there is a lot still to do. I had to adapt at first to the car and get used to driving the car without traction control, but I am convinced that that soon I will be used to this and will not remember what is was like to drive with traction control."

India's Surveillance State

Posted: 29 Dec 2013 06:40 PM PST


CIS has been doing a great job , hats of to them.. They are nearly like EFF for India.

Snoopgate is the first fall out of these massive surveillance and i dont think it will stop there .

Unlike in western country where they can get away by calling it "secret court-FISA" .. etc , that kind of shit can only last in india , imo , only till hte mass doesnt know about it. When that threshold level is crossed , it will become a political issue.

Compared to few years before , now people are little more cautious in how they use internet and starting to acknowledge right to privacy. Its a long way still , but we will be there soon i guess ,many thanks to social sites etc.

There was news yesterday which was saying NSA`s data collection is worthless as it gathers all kinds of shit and not targeted. I am not supporting surveillance , but when a intelligence agency wants mass surveillance ,then imo they have no clue what they are doing. What happened to the "intelligence" part ? You dont need a f**king department for that . In todays automated world , a computer can do better job than them.

One of the worrying part is the unopposed funding to these schemes.

As Sunil was saying , we need Privacy Bill/Law more than ever now. It will become our supposed first line of defense . But how much it will be watered down by the centre will  remain concern.

This whole system needs just one massive scandal... to be dismantled.

Need advice on *FUP* free Internet Connection.

Posted: 29 Dec 2013 07:32 AM PST

Hello everyone! ,

I apologise for any mistakes that i make as i am new to the forums. (But following it from quite some time now.) I am from Kolhapur,Maharashtra and I currently have BSNL wired broadband with the ULD 950 plan.(4 mbps till 8 GB and 512 kbps beyond). I am having no problems with it so far and it has been quite reliable.But i am a type of downloader and 8 Gb is just..* :anger3: *..Those 8 gigs get used up between 2nd/3rd of every month...Video streaming,windows updates, :pirate: ,etc etc you just can't live with 8 gig in this digital age! The 512 kbps post fup speed is a joke.I connect 4 to 5 devices through wifi and 512 is not enough for all these.

Now i seriously need something truly unlimited and i am literally fed up of this fup! There are really not ISP who provide BB at my area. Airtel/Reliance is not present, Docomo is there but my area, although in middle of city,is not feasible! There's no other ISP's and i am unable to know what should i do.Then i come across BSNL EVDO which has a unlimited plan for ₹ 750 and has speeds upto 3.1 mbps.

Should i take a EVDO connection? How will i share the usb connection through wifi? I am a gamer and i know that Evdo,which is through cdma network would give me too good pings.So i would like to keep my current broadband and lower the plan to ULD 525 and then add Evdo for downloading and all that stuff. Is this correct thing to do? Where would i get the evdo data card and modem? Should i buy the modem from BSNL or buy something like micromax/huawei? I have already registered at uddan.bsnl.com for a new evdo connection. Suggestions from you guys are really needed. Thanks in advance!
