I just did some tinkering around.
My modem gives the option of selecting (dynamic ip) under protocol while configuring the connection.
I also have the option for Bridge.
DHCP supported.
So my modem should work without any problem?
just wait for your installation and u will know the pain with adsl+ router ....lol

Alrighty. Reliance works on mer. The modem acts as a dhcp client, and Reliance's dhcp server assigns it an IP. Now, depending on what the modem sends in its dhcp request will determine whether third party modems can be used or not. Also, in order for reliance s dhcp server to assign the modem an ip, they need to allow the modem's Mac id onto their network. How willing would they be to add your routers Mac id ? I dunno. Also your modem does need to support MER. In order to complete authentication, the login page is needed and all other connection properties are then applied and hence reliance connections aren't port bound. I'm pretty sure bridge won't work, coz what will you dial out to ? I hope this is the correct explanation 
It'd be great if some on reliance would post their connection page.

Reliance uses mer 
It's better to live with an unused modem than with "Airtel"...right?
Lol tell me about it.
Even with moderate usage, I cross 7GB in a matter of 3 or 4 days. 256kb/s isn't enough for crap. Not even Facebook
Now getting my Airtel line disconnected is gong to be another adventure.

I dont think so. Visit your nearby Airtel mobile/BB centre and give them a written request for surrendering the line. Pay the recent bill amt without fail.
When the line is disconnected visit the centre again and surrender your Landline phone + modem and get a receipt for it. That's it.
Don't rely on CC for anything.
