Help me out guys,I m using BSNL Dataone broadband connection. We have 2 desktops and 2 laptops, we use SmartAX MT814 ADSL modem which is also used as a switch, all computers are stand alone and we share data, printer and internet, where internet use to be always on and anyone to access web. Since last week, always on connection is down and we can access internet only via a separate dialing broadband connection and only one computer can access internet. While internet is on one compter the Lan works fine. We tried out everything, changed Lan settings, assigned IPs, checked DNS, IP, Subnet Mask, Default gateways, reset the modem, reconfigured the modem, we even installed a new modem but still the problem persists. I have noticed, when a special dial broadband connection is used the (miniport PPPoE IP) client IP address is assigned by the service provider but only when trying always on the client IP is not assigned by the Service Provider. In modem configuration VCI/ VPI is 0/35 and all other settings are enabled. The modem shows connected but in service information the status shows not connected due to PPPoE IP unavailable and client IP not assigned. Please help me out guys. Location- Nasik (Maharashtra)
PPPoE IP Address unavailable for always on connection

Is DHCP server enabled in the modem?and are the other computers on automatic assigning IP under TCP\IP?Try with Always on 1stNow does a single computer able to access the internet if directly connected to the modem after putting the above settings?Try these and then get back.

Hi Guys and yeah Mac, Problem sloved!!! i changed VPI/VCI from 0/35 to 0/32 and link is up. make sure you delete 0/35 and 0/32 and create new VPI/VCI 0/32. What is this VPI/VCI, what could have been the problem. As the problem sloved, but i still not sure what cozed the problem, and m very qurious what could it be, so that it does not happen again, and if anyone comes accross this problem then this might help.
