Enabling Home Based BSNL wifi on your Wifi Mobile Phones

Few Days Back I bought a new Samsung Wave 525 phone. It is having Wifi I got excited and without wasting any time I enabled its Wifi. My modem Wifi was detected and connected to but even then I was not able to access the Internet. This made me very upset and I started thinking that I wasted my money. After this I started searching the Internet regarding my problem. Earlier I was thinking that problem is due to some settings might not right in mobile phone. But I was wrong Configuration of modem was needed to setup. So I found a useful link that let you setup your modem according to your mobile and then you will be able to run internet simultaneously on laptop, mobile & P.C.

I am having two type of Modems at two different places (one at my home in Ludhiana and another one at Barnala)

Firstly I ll show you how to setup BSNL ZTE Modem:-

Setting up your Computers IP:-

Please make sure to set your IP, Subnet and Gateway along with DNS Server as according:-
  1. I.P. = 192.168.1.10
  2. Subnet Mask = 255.255.255.0
  3. Gateway = 192.168.1.1
  4. Preffered DNS Server = 61.0.0.5
  5. Alternate DNS Server = 61.1.96.69 and 61.1.96.71
Making Wireless Connection Secure:-
  1. First login to your DSL Router setup at http://192.168.1.1
  2. Then on Left Panel Go to Wireless->Security
  3. Let SSID value unchanged.
  4. Select Network Authentication= WPA-PSK
  5. WPA Encryption= TKIP
  6. Save and Apply (Let Rest of values remain unchanged)
Setting Up LAN and WAN for Multiple Use:-

  6. Selct Connection type= PPPoE and Encapsulation mode= LLC/SNAP-BRIDGING. Then click on next
  7. Now enter the password and username which your ISP provided you. In PPPoE service name you can put anything as I am putting here PPPoE Service Name = dataone. Leave Rest of things unchanged. Click on Next
  8. Make a check on Enable NAT, Enable Firewall, Enable WAN Service. Click on Next
  9. Cross Check the values you put down and make changes if they have been inserted wrongly. At last Click on Save.
