Linker and other odd BSNL Problems

[vistascan]

Ok, I have been having these really weird problems and I need some help.

I had been having link problems for a while now. The link would be highly unstable and keep going on and off, so I wasn't able to do any work. I though this was due to poor USB connectivity so I bought a LAN card, but the link problem stayed.
This morning I went into the BSNL admin service at my ip address 192. etc and reset the settings. Since then I was unable to connect to the internet due to constant error 678. I then made some settings in the ip admin as written in a documentation provided by BSNL, after which I managed to connect, but only sometimes, and the connections get off frequently with error 678.

When I reset my ip admin settings my Data lamp in my modem turned on and a new automatic setting of internet connectivity opened up, which doesn't do much. I noticed that this data lamp lights up whenever there is the error 678 coming.

Now, I can connect sometimes and sometimes not.

Please advise, I am attaching my settings page for reference. I have the Siemens C2110 Black modem.

Please neglect my post as members/essbebe already posted a reply. You can continue to troubleshoot with him. sorry for any inconvenience caused

1. Delete all the PVC profiles except bridge_0_35. One profile at a time. C2110 is slow and takes a lot of time to process these requests... WARNING!: Don't turn off/restart your modem at any point while deleting these profiles. During the process don't play with any other settings. When there's only bridge_0_35 left in the page, wait for a few minutes & restart the modem once through 192.168.1.1

2. Is the splitter correctly installed? It should be exactly like this one:



3. Try connecting using your username/pass through your PC. Can you connect? Still getting error 678?

4. Post your line stats (SNR/Line Att.) from the advanced stats page at 192.168.1.1

Ok I followed the info in the BSNL website. And I've checked the option of always on while setting up the connection. Now I can't connect to the internet with my windows connection but when ever the modem comes on with all four lights steady, I can surf the net. Is this always on connection going to affect my usage. I mean, will it increase my usage unnecessarily since it is always on?? please reply

Ok I followed the info in the BSNL website.

Now I can't connect to the internet with my windows connection (* dialer connection )
but when ever the modem comes on with all four lights steady,
I can surf the net. (* You are on PPPoE mode Not "Bridged")

Is this always on connection going to affect my usage. (* NO)
I mean, will it increase my usage unnecessarily since it is always on??
(NO. But some traffic between Modem and Exchange possible. can be ignored )

please reply
please use or enter key /paragraphs.

Thanks. Now the PPPoE connection, as you said is working fine.

I just included the current config page screenshot for reference. Please tell me if the config is ok?

And what do I have to do if want to change to bridged mode?

 

[essbebe]

create a dialer first.
PPPoE DIALER INSTALLATION

If already Dialer is available

open modem pages
go to tools
and save present settings to say C:/My Documents /C2110 Nov24th
Now edit the first entry for "bridged" MODE. AND CHANGE vci TO 35
save Reboot. wait for two minutes.
If entry is not accepted edit last entry . ( already working in PPPoE)

Yeah but that doesn't fix my link problems. its still going off every 10 minutes or so

 

[essbebe]

Copy/paste this data ( No edit )
Start/ RUN type cmd Ok
New window
Type ipconfig /all
