BSNL Dataone tips & Tricks
Dataone Usage Finder 
Check your BSNL dataone bandwidth usage with this software. It is downloadable from Dataone Usage Finder. The latest version will provide you the bill details too.
Another tip to save bandwidth (not only BSNL broadband) Use a GOOD Anti Virus
But how can anti virus help me to save bandwidth?
Most of the modern
day virus and trojans are capable of auto-updating themselves. There
are also similat malicious programs which send out data packets without
your knowledge. And this will increase the bandwidth usgae and will
give you a huge bill. This is where a good anti virus can help.
Unfortunately, most of the anti-viruses available today are costly and
are not affordable for common man in India. But, we have many good anti
virus softwares which are available for free. And, they are as good as
the paid ones and some outperforms the paid counterparts.
Here is a list of some free anti virus softwares.
And never use two
anti-virus softwares simulatenously. Doing so will not help you much
and also they eat up a lot of system resources. Though you can use
anti-spywares along with it. And we reccomend to use ananti-spyware
along with the anti virus software.
Here is a list of some FREE anti-spyware softwares.
So, install these,
and update to latest definitions, do a complete system scan. Remove all
those infections and notice the change in bandwidth usage and download
/ upload speed.
Configuring BSNL Dataone on SmartAX MT882 ADSL Router

Improve the broadband performance in Windows XP/2003 Well, before doing this....do this test
1) Goto http://www.testmy.net/ and click on Download Speed Test, and then on Smart Test....(and
while conducting this test, don't forget to close all Instant
Messagers, and there should be no other web activity, other than the
test)
2) Note down the speeds.
Now, lets see, what all changes to be made.....
This tip is
designed for increased BROADBAND speed in Windows XP while using
standard Network Interface cards (NIC) that are connected to ADSL
modems, or when using any directly-connected USB ADSL modem.
To speed up the
Internet connection speed we need to configure a special buffer in the
computer's memory in order to enable it to better deal with interrupts
made from the NIC or the USB modem.
This tip is only recommended if you have 256MB RAM or higher.
Step #1 - Identify the IRQ used by the NIC/USB modem
1. Open the System Information tool by running MSINFO32.EXE from the Run command.
2. Expand System Summary > Hardware Resources > IRQs.
3. Look for the
listing made for your NIC (in my case - a Intel® PRO/100+ Management
Adapter). Note the IRQ next to the specified line (in my case - IRQ21).
In case of USB modems you will first need to find the right USB device used by your modem. Follow these steps:
1. Open the Device
Manager tool by running DEVMGMT.MSC from the Run command (or by
right-clicking My Computer > Hardware tab > Device Manager
button).
2. Scroll down to Universal Serial Bus controllers and expand it.
3. Right-click the
USB Root Hub and select Properties. Note that you might need to do so
for all listed USB Root hubs (if there are more than one) in order to
find the right one.
4. In the Power tab, look for your USB ADSL modem.
5. In the Resources tab look for the assigned IRQ (in this case - IRQ21).
6. This is the IRQ we're looking for.
Note: IRQs and modem names might vary...
Step #2 - Modify the system.ini file
1. Run SYSEDIT.EXE from the Run command.
2. Expand the system.ini file window.
3. Scroll down almost to the end of the file till you find a line called [386enh].
4. Press Enter to
make one blank line, and in that line type IrqX=4096 where X is the
designated IRQ number we found in step #1, in my case it's IRQ21.
Note: This line IS CASE SENSITIVE!!!
5. Click on the File menu, then choose Save.
6. Close SYSEDIT and reboot your computer.
Done. Speed improvement will be noticed after the computer reboots.
NOW DO THE SPEED TEST AGAIN (MENTIONED IN THE BEGINNING) AND NOTICE THE CHANGE IN SPEED
The most speed improvement is visible with USB.
WARNING:- It worked for me....am not sure whether it will work for you...
Save bandwidth (For Firefox users) The trick is same as that of Internet Explorer. Well, in this case it can be done using an Firefox extension called Flashblock.
WARNING:-
Never install this extension, if your Firefox version is below 1.5 and
in such a case, upgrade the browser and then install this plugin.
Restart the
browser and you will be amazed to see, the flash ads being blocked.
This plugin also has the option to exempt some sites (likeonline
greeting sites etc) from block.
And this Firefox extension successfully blocks the following:
- Macromedia Flash
- Macromedia Shockwave
- Macromedia Authorware
