My time-waste projects with My LIFe-Unix-Linux-Windows

Today i cancelled my rliance wi-max connection. 2 months it worked great with minor dhcp issues. but line of sight signal system it follows and something went wrong and no proper singal .. so they only told me - sir cancel your connection — hummm.. but one thing their field engineers are worest. By seeing them no one can guess they are employees. worest thing is they don;t know anything except checking signal. i saw 5 pairs of engineers - even one pair don;t know ping command properly in windows. Actually level engineer wants them to ping gateway for 3 mins. in windows we need to give ping -t

for continuoes ping .. these guys using ping xx.xxx.xxx.xx and once it ierminates again preseeing up arrow and hitting enter..oh ! man … nonsense.

so proper signal is there in your area then only go for that.

Past 5 days i am facing problem with reliance wimax connection. dwonload speed is excellent but upload speed is zero so full of download bandwidth but zero upload means NO INTERNET :( customer care saying that there “seems” to be issue at server side and working to fix it asap but no ETA … hummm

http://firewall-jay.sf.net is very is to setup ( actually nothing setup all menu based )for linux. i am using for years and it works very nice.  you need to have 2 lan cards in your box.  network sharing is onle “clik” operation

so many features avail with this firewall. i can offer free support to setup this firewall . just leave comment here.

you can do port forwarding,nat,block local ips, you can graph traffic…etc………

1.my experience with unlimited broadband internet plans

some what iam medium type user of internet , my usage around 20 GB download 15 GB upload per month. so i always prefer 256 kbps unlimited plans. i tried airtel,bsnl data-one,reliance. at first shot i tried 256 kbps ( 32 KB) airtel dsl connection. zyxel router i opt in instead of modem as port forwarding is allowed and nat is in built. i usedit for 1 year.

Later moved to other place in my city and there is no coverage for airtel dsl in that area and hathway is there but local cable wala asking more money with very less bandwidth. 128 kbps - 800 rs

so i moved to BSNL broad band i will experience my bad experience in next post. with 2 months of usage , fed up and closed connection.

Next i moved to reliance wimax - i will post my review in next post. At present i am stick with this connection.
