Usually Tech wing does not worry about this.
Say modem/router is internmittent or faulty
. Exchange possible within an year of purchase.
Get some other model. Accept a nonwifi model if offered , after checking up dyndns is available !
there are enough complaints about this modem SEM or ITI DNA A211-I

----------

Exchange possible within one year of purchase.
If you don't need WIFI , if offered take a type I. ( ensure it has dyndns!)except Ut300r2U ( as reported earlier !!!)
 
unluckly its not on rent... even i had the same thought of exchanging..

----------

thanks a lot pal. well its over an year since i own it now.and i will surely be needin wifi :). well anyway. 'm tryin some things. will post it if i succeed.:D. cheers!!

----------

well you would have surely come across dd-wrt /open-wrt. Can you help me figure out the closest to ITI DNA-A211 so i'll try flashing it...:)
 
Unlikely you can use DDWRT. Chip set details needed.Please post the screenshot of the Device Info of present unit.Send PM to @amish about WRT/Tomatogiving this link,and brief details about telnet result.

1.Linux.com :: Tasty Tomato firmware for routers about tomato.
2.
You have to open UserCP and send a Private Message to @ amish.
give link to this thread. Briefly state that you
need to have DYNDNS in DNA211-I wifi router menu.
so far I have not read OpenWRT being used in these models.

3.Would you like to try FW upgrade of Beetle 450BX wifi router?
would you like to try it first ? I have the link from link-removed.

See Warning at beginning of this thread !
4. Could you not use Virtual servers/or port
triggering option instead ?

5. Still you can try the BSNL option !
 
If your modem/router becomes a "DUD" "Bricked" beyond repair "Door stopper"
TRY Firmware upgrade at your own Risk
Please drop "sir" here.
Para two:
Beetel 450BXI same hardware board menu pages .
No assurance DYNDNS option will be available.
Firmware.

I didnt try dyndns on modem ever because I use bridge mode.

this modem does check for existence of /etc/ppp/ip-up.local file.

by default its not there. so somehow if u can put it there (which is tough as its squashfs file system and 100% full) then u can call a dyndns update script (u will have to put that too)

dyndns script is not in the modem. they have put minimal busybox.

----------

also i didnt try flashing modem with tomato. as i cant risk internet to go down as internet is critical for my work.
 
ha ha ha ..i don knw weather to cry or laugh ... 'm mad.. i previously flashed it with "3.08.02.IB.02.01_cfe_fs_kernel".. and my restartin issure was resolved.. but guess wat...i downloaded "dd-wrt".. "tomato" ..i tried so many different possible ways to flash my router with those.. and u know wat.. the file gets uploaded and and the router takes a reboot and the router is still running on it "DNA" firmware.. the damn! thing isn't accepting any firmware and is hardcore stealhty to updates :( :(...u have a idea..?? and

@ amish : wow!! u know so much.. i'll try but wr can i get a copy of those files ..'ll some how try to squeeze them in..:cool2:

----------

Bridge mode ..heard about it but don know much..
Well dear ppl i'll tell u wat my actual objective is..hope u have some alternatives...

Well, I can ask some 1 at home to turn ON the UPS or probably leave it On always.. but i want to send a WOL command and boot up my PC and want to be able to ssh into my PC wn i 'm on travel.. usually i'm using the no-ip update client and have to keep my PC ON ..have to trouble som1 @ home to boot it up for me.. i jz wanted to avoid all that..

I planned to add a rule in the modem to broadcast the WOL packet on the LAN which would boot up my comp .. problem is my ISP provides me only dynamic IP ..its actually an advantage..but my ISP's modem isn't providing DDns service :(..i hope 'll be able to do somethin abu this.. If i can achieve this i can boot my PC up without interupting any1 and any time in the day :) ;)

Sorry for this big long passage of text.:)

----------

@ essbebe : i even tried the beetle firmware you provided. My modem din have any effect with that either :) .. now 'm totally feelin so funny!! with this modem of mine!!:@
