I am using Windows vista ultimate 32 bit .I wanted to make a batch file using rasdial to automatically connect and disconnect . After searching from net ,i was able to make a batch file which can successfully disconnect the net connection .

However i still cannot make it to connect to net .My ISP is Dataone ,home 500 . Please help ?

I posted this I believe.

rasdial connection_name username@dataone password

save it in a bat, and run.

I'm busy now, I'll write that tutorial later.

edit: i forgot the connection name :) sorry

Thanks thanks however your format is wrong there is no "@Dataone" Once i removed it i was able to successfully run Rasdial . I was also able to schedule by including in auto shutdown

Thanks again mate . You helped me sleep in night .

No, I'm quite sure you have to include a "@dataone" in the username, because thats how BSNL assigns the usernames. Wait, is it different in your location or something? Because thats how it is in Chennai here.
