Connection Problem !!

[mayflower]

I have a BSNL broadband connection home-500. Using modem Ut300R2U.I use Xp and Vista both. I keep getting an exclamation mark in the activity window (connection status)right below saying "Local Area Connection, Speed 12.0mbps, Limited or no connectivity." My speed is a bit slow. What could be the reason. BSNL engineers who come to install the modem dont know anything,when contact they dont respond,they say dont put any DNS nos and IP address windows automatically asssigns one. Is it true?

hi,exclamation mark means for limited or no connection ..try command (ifconfig /all )before and when you get exclamation mark and ping your modem/router (to check your connectivity).what i am thinking, this can be misconfiguration of NIC or cable fault.configure your NIC for 100 mbps full duplex.
