Hello All,
This is a little embarasing to ask as something as simple as triband is not getting setup in linux. On the day we met at Bandra, later I tried it out at my uncle's place and no success. Now I got it at my place and I tried dhcp as well as static ip but nothing works. In dhcp, the dns becomes 192.168.1.1 instead of mtnl's dns, so I made it static but no result. /etc/resolv.conf show the 2 dns entries.
Help help!!
The unit should work irrespective of the Client OS. However, your symptoms are similar to what I experienced with the first DLink modem I got from MTNL. It RIP'd a short while thereafter. Of course, MTNL will not replace until it bellies up. Hopefully, you have better luck with your unit.
1. Firmware version of the modem? (hint: status>device info). If not V2.00B01T01.ML.20050530, upgrade from DLink/India website. 2. Disable DNS relay and DHCP in the modem, on client systems apply static IP and MTNL's DNS servers in /etc/resolv.conf. This worked for me for a while until the modem went kaput. In the replaced unit I have done the same deal. 3. If the above does not work, then "reset" the unit (a small switch at the back) to factory defaults. Before you "reset" note the settings for PVC0 (home>wan). After unit reboots, you will have to re-enter your PPPoE login data and save it. 4. You can try DLink Tech support but don't raise your expectations for them to solve your problem.
HTH,
