No - I set it up & then turned it off.

I am also assuming that the modem is having all other settings other than the PPPoE mode set as default.

Really helped a lot - I have got further than I did whole evening.
Now wireless shows connected. No error/warnings.
Unfortunately, I am still not able to browse.
Going to say google.com, Browser status bar says "Finding site:www.google.com" for sometime & then the page goes to "Cannot
find server".
Ping yahoo.com
Ping request could not find host yahoo.com. Please check the name and try again.
ping 66.94.234.13 [ Yahoo's IP]

So help me - what is the problem.
From the 2nd ping - it may be that the gateway is not letting
anything through?
One question. When I connect through my desktop, the dialer(?) asks
for a username/password which I provide?
How come a wireless connection can be established without a username/password - is there a way to provide my username/password
to the modem when connecting to through the wireless? Is this what
I am missing - is this why the gateway isn't allowing me in?
Also do I need my desktop on & connected to BSNL for this work?
I tried either way, no diff.

Try this and get back. I will also guide you through WiFi Security. Please provide us with your modem model no.
