How to Auto Redial when the connection fails

 

Most of us automate the downloads. We set download and leave the system unattended, may it be during night unlimited or during day time, it is a head ache if the connection fails in between. You have to manually reconnect to resume the download. We can automate the process by a few simple adjustments in the dialler. A dialler is the window where we click connect.

Procedure:
Control panel > Network connections > Choose you dialler > properties > Options tab > check the box " Redial if line is dropped "

There is not need for a batch file or any other utility. When the system fails, it will try to reconnect the no of times mentioned. Also it is wise to set the reconnection time to 1 minute or higher to make sure that line problems do not affect your connection.

How to change your BSNL Portal ID

 

BSNL gives two IDs, one is the user name that we enter in the modem if in PPPoE or in dialler in case of Bridge mode. Another is the Portal ID which we need to log in to the BSNL portals http://data.bsnl.in/wps/portal and http://bbservice.bsnl.in/ to check usage or change password.

http://data.bsnl.in/wps/portal is modified on 11 th of this month adding a new feature to change your Portal ID. Portal ID is a 14 digit code of the form ABC123mmddyyyy.

ABC represents your surname

123 – A 3 digit code

mmddyyyy – Date of application normally like 25102008

To change, log in to http://data.bsnl.in/wps/portal using the Portal ID and password,

On the welcome page, on the left side, you will find an option to Change  user ID, single click it.  You will be directed to a page where you can enter the desired Portal ID and click “ submit “.

Similarly you can change the  portal password and the service password from the same screen.

Hope you will find some use to it as the portal ID is usually very hard to remember with all those numbers.
