hi friends..I've recently installed ubuntu.with sudo pppoeconf, i'm able to access net. But it get disconnects in short interval and it requires again-2 the same command.
I'm nt able to download updates..
plz help me guys...

better use PPPoE instead of bridge mode
go to 192.168.1.1 & enter user is & pass as "admin"
look for "pvc0" and change its mode to PPPoE from bridge.
enter your dataone user is & password.
go to system & click save & reboot
now when the router is switched on it will connect automatically

yeah , connecting through your NIC is much better n safer n a lot easier . follow the steps as Gary said , if u hv an airtel connection , then goto

Code:

192.168.1.1/main.html

hi friends..
I hav installed ubuntu 7.04.I've got dual booting, Xp and ubuntu..
internet is working fine in XP,but in linux the LAN "led " in modem is nt glowing and i think it is nt detecting ethernet..
plz guide me as i'm nt able to access net in linux..

there is something called commandline in Linux.In ubuntu,u can access it from Desktop's menu =Applications>Accessories>Terminal(or right click simply to get "Open Terminal".open it.
now in the "$" prompt type "lspci" and press enter.paste that output here.

Also run "ifconfig" command too in terminal and post it here.if u want to trouble shoot do post the o/p here.

reinstalling Linux doesnt help either.
