I am using the D-Link DSL-502T router provided by MTNL. Yours might not be
different. It is just that you plug in the right connections and set your
network settings to dhcp. Use only the ethernet port. I dont think USB will
work. Then, you open up your browser on 192.168.1.1. There, you run the
wizard and enter all that it asks. Ask BSNL for the login, password, VPI and
VCI. Then, you must reboot the system (first time I'm seeing a linux system
that require you to reboot it).
As for ADSL 2, D-Link India's site says that it requires firmware upgrade
which "will be available shortly".
