how to reset a Modem/router

just press the reset button on the back of the router. jst press it .
what it is gonna do ?
it will rest the modem/router to the original factory settings
how is it helpful?
if you forget your router login password then you can reset the password by pressing the button

not able to login to Router [192.168.1.1]

This is one of the common problem encountered when you try to login to the Modem or router .
what you need to take care of is that you manually change your IP , as BSNL gives a IP from DHCP server and to access your router/modem you need to change the IP from a Dynamic one to one in the range of the 192.168.*.* IP
try the following settings-
so try ip 192.168.1.10
submask 255.255.255.0
default gateway 192.168.1.1

Speed your Torrents- Broadband speed tips

hi
these are the simple tips i found over internet and i have tested some personnaly on my linux systems.

for azureus :-
1.you use Good settings for high download speed
(Set your upload limit to about 80% of the maximum possible)
2.you don't have a NAT problem (look for a error message prompting to tell u that)
3.you don't use a standard incoming listen port like 6881 (it s being banned and change the default listening port too)
4.you use Good Torrents (u use torrent with
good seeder\leecher ratio or with good health )
5.you do NOT use Force Start (use it as a last resort )

for bittorent clients:-

1.Limit your upload speed to approximately 80 percent of your maximum upload rate
2.Hack the max TCP connections(for windows xp 2 users .if this patch doesnt work for u . u can uninstall it )
http://lvllord.de/download.php?url=en/EvID4226Patch223d-en.zip
3.Check seeds and peers (look for torrents with the best seed/peer ratio. The more seeds (compared to peers) the better
4. Change the default port.
By default, BitTorrent uses a port 6881-6999. you should change these to another range. if you’re behind a router, make sure you have the ports forwarded or UPnP enabled.
5. Disable Windows Firewall
Windows Firewall hates P2P and often leads a life of it’s own. Kerio or Zone Alarm r gud

besides these have a no of torrents running at a time
and act diploamttically ,,,like if u r close to pc try having the downlaods which are getting a good speed finished first ,,,
and dont forget to seed your downlaods for atleast for 3 days

wake up the computer from standby mode for Bsnl broadband

i have got a program that can wake up the computer from standby mode or from hibernate.I use this for waking up the pc and scheduling the downloads..
It has a scheduler too
Try it
http://rapidshare.com/files/14658262/Auto_Power-on___Shut-down_Professional_2.00_With_Keygen.rar.html


Use the following Steps to perform the task:
I assume my Username to be haviz and password to be patiala.

1. Create a connection to BSNL broadband as usual, by Create a New Connection>>Connect to the Internet>>Set up my connection manually>>Connect using a broadband connection that requires a username and password. Name the ISP name as BSNL. Use a small single name please.

2. Making sure that the connection is setup and is working fine, proceed to the next step.

3. Click on Start>>Control Panel>>Scheduled Tasks>>Add Scheduled Task. Click Next to continue.

4. Click Browse button to open the Select Program to schedule dialog. Browse to c:\windows\system32\rasdial.exe, assuming that your windoze is installed in C:\. Click Open to continue.

5. Now select this task to be performed on Daily basis. Now click Next to continue.

6. Now select the Start time to suit your choice. I use 02:05 Hrs. Also set the Perform this task to be done Every day. Leave the Start Date as it is and click on Next button to continue.

7. Select the Username and Password for the account you want to run the connection as. I found some difficulties here, because the Task Scheduler did give some errors when I did not had any password on my account. So I recommend that you setup a Password to your Windoze User account, otherwise you might face some difficulties. After entering the Windoze Username & Password, click Next to continue.

8. Now Click the Open advanced properties for this task when I click Finish. Now proceed to the last Step.

9. A new dialog box will open. Here you will see many Tabs. In the Task tab, There is a line in Run box where something like this is written C:\WINDOWS\system32\rasdial.exe. We have to add the connection name, username & password here for this command to function. So, my connection name is BSNL, Username is haviz and password is patiala, as I assumed above, my modified command will be C:\WINDOWS\system32\rasdial.exe BSNL shaviz patiala.

10. Now click the Settings tab. In the Power Management Section, Enable the Wake the computer to run this task, and click OK.

Common torrent errors

torrent common errors

1.Problem getting response info - [Errno 2] No such file or directory: "C:\\Documents and Sett..."
sometimes Internet Explorer sometimes doesn't save the torrent file in the Temporary Internet Files directory properly. The solution seems to be to right click on the link and choose Save As..., and save the torrent file to disk, and then double-click the file to launch the client. Clearing the IE cache seems to help if this problem is recurring. It seems to be related to torrent files with square brackets (']' and '[') in the filename.

2.Too many args - 0 max.
This error in indicative of a bad command line. See the section on setting the command line and ensure that the arguments to the BitTorrent program include --responsefile "%1".

3.piece failed hash check, re-downloading it
This is a benign message, you can safely ignore it. It means that you received a piece of the file that didn't check out as being correct, so it will be downloaded again. Probable cause of this might be someone incorrectly using the "skip hash check" option.

4.bad data from tracker -
Usually you can ignore this, it seems to happen when the tracker is overloaded or otherwise flaky.
5,6,7 Problem connecting to tracker - timeout exceeded or HTTP Error 503: Connect failed , or [Errno socket error] (10061, "Connection refused")
There was a problem contacting the tracker. Trackers tend to be heavily loaded, and connections sometimes fail. The best thing to do is just be patient and leave the client open. If you find you're getting this a lot, you can try increasing the HTTP request timeout by adding the parameter "--http_timeout 120" (the default is 60, unit is seconds.)

8.Problem connecting to tracker - HTTP Error 404: Not Found
Probably a stale/outdated torrent. Try to find a new link to the torrent
9.Problem connecting to tracker - HTTP Error 407: Proxy Authentication Required
You may need to configure a username and password for your proxy server setting in order to contact the tracker.

10.Problem connecting to tracker - HTTP Error 400: Not Authorized

This indicates that the administrators of this tracker are not allowing it to be used for this torrent. Some trackers will only track torrents that are also posted in their forums/website, for example. Usually this indicates a stale torrent -- try going to the web site associated with the tracker and see if you can find an updated torren
