This Problem is due to Password configuration,set-up ur wireless secure Password which is provided by BSNL Exchange of your area,Ask directly the Person who installed & set-up the Internet at your end. SIX--- digit / alphanumeric/ Alphabet are provided ,feed that before connecting to firefox in Linux./windows.It will surely work for you. -- Regard Arun On Wed, Jun 23, 2010 at 9:11 PM, Puneet jaju <[email protected]> wrote: > Hey, > > I have one desktop computer with windows xp installed and recently > connected to BSNL broadband via this setup (Landline phone - Modem - *Router > *- Lan Cord - Desktop (Windows Xp)). > The engineer provided us with username, password and Portal id, and > installed a software in desktop that connects us to internet. > > I also have a laptop that have both Windows vista and Linux version (ubuntu > Ultimate edition 2.7) installed. router has 4 LAN ports and wifi output. > Wifi has default settings and my laptop detects this with good network but > is unable to get internet connectivity at Firefox, internet explorer and > other browsers.
