hello,
If you are using BSNL's ADSL modem , which model/type using.  I have
configured the BSNL's modem  on line  so that IP address obtained
automatically. You can take help from BSNL's customers service to configure
modem in webpage of 192.168.1.1, if it is new to you.
IIn my case, I have configured settings on-line of Modem's webpage and as
such internet connection automatically connected whenever you click on
browser.  Even ubuntu  and other linus os are automatically connected with
internent thro modem  - without any configuration on my part in any of OS.
In CD supplied with your Modem  there are instructions how to configure in
Modem's webpage.

hi all,
i'm very new to ubuntu. i had downloaded ubuntu 6.06, but could not
connect to the net using BSNL broad band thru ethernet. i went thru ur
help page & performed the commands as advised - viz.
sudo ifconfig eth0 up 192.168.1.2
sudo route add default gw 192.168.1.1
sudo vi /etc/resolv.conf
 following these steps, i was able to connect to the net. however, when
i tried connecting after restarting the system, it didnt work. i then
treid the same commands all over again. when i gave the command sudo
vi /etc/resolv.conf i got the following msg
E-325 - attention
found a swap file by name "/etc/resolv.conf.swp
it gave me 2 options
1. another programme may be editing the file
an edit session for this file crashed.
if i proceed, i am still able to connect, but the problem persists - i
have to type the series of commands each time i connect to the net.
        i also have windows XP which i was using previously with the same
BSNL
ADSL broadband connection. ever since i started using the net on ubuntu,
i am now unable to connect in windows.
 since then, i have upugraded to ubuntu 7.04. i am a novice - looking
for some simple solutions!!!
thanks,
ravi
