OK, Good Morning, Good Evening, Good Everything, Here I am your host Ashwin Saxena…. (Someone from Behind: Its a blog, not your radio show!!!). Oh OK…Sorry I got carried away :p

Today we will cook learn how to Setup BSNL ADSL net connection if you are using bridged mode in your router. Note the ingredients. (Ahhhh! too much cookery shows.. :( )

So 1st thing 1st… Note down everything written here or take a printout. :)

We will do everything the CLI way… (Yay! the CLI…. Me just love it.)

Open Terminal of your Ubuntu. (Its the shell prompt.)

Issue the following command:

sudo pppoeconf

This script will automatically detect which interface in your computer is connected to the router/modem (eth0 most probably..), and will continue and will ask you for the usename (for exampe: yourusername@dataone) and password. It will ask you for MTU, leave it at 1452

. After the setup, you give the command:

#> pon dsl-provider
to start the connection, and
#> poff dsl-provider
to stop the connection.

Any problem? Leave a comment or contact me on yahoo - hiddenturbo@yahoo.com
