Correct me if I am wrong. The 203.197. ip block is VSNL's dialup ip pool,
from which it allots DHCP addresses. I tried nslookup on both and it
gives me "nonexistent host / domain". 202.54.6.1 is giasmd01.vsnl.net.in
>203.197.150.52 is my DNS. rest is vsnl's.
Check again. These are dhcp assigned ip addresses. Have you been
allotted a static ip address? They seem to have given you a DHCP + NAT
based connection.

They are too damned clueless, if they give you DHCP ips as nameservers.

Pardon??? Your nameservers are sure to change if you shift ISPs (even
ERNET to VSNL). Do yourself a favor - make sure exactly WHAT your DNS
servers are, what your IP address is (you ~haven't~ been allotted a static
ip, I think) ... etc.
