[OT] alternate brand modems compatible with MTNL TriBand
by Arun Kumar Khan 31 Jan '09

31 Jan '09

My DLINK 502T ADSL modem is behaving real flaky. Today it spontaneously reset my programmed values (ip, incoming rules etc.) to factory default (192.168.1.1)! When I try to changes it IP number to a different network, it simply does not save it. I realize there are a lot of folks here with the service. Are there any other brands that are compatible with MTNL's ADSL service? What has been your experience with them? TIA, -- Regards, Arun Khan

which stable version should one use
by sameer shinde 28 Jan '09

28 Jan '09

Hi All, Whenever I visit squid-cache.org site. I always have a doubt is, why there are multiple stable version available for production release? What i mean is, when there is 3.0 stable release is available for production, then still why 2.7 is available. I can understand that, older versions should be available to the users, but then it may come under older version head not in the current versions list. Other thing is, when there is a latest version available, what is the need of develpment … [View More]
