I have tried it myself and believe it or not I got a call back from their side within two days of submission.
Also, they had attempted to solve the problem that day itself.

Here is another broadband specific helpline exclusively for BSNL Kalyan users: 0251-2435200.

BSNL/MTNL broadband speed hack May 2012

All of you know that BSNL has Bandwidth contention ratio of 1:25 which means that 25 people may share a connection and compete for international bandwidth. That is why some people like me are experiencing less download speeds between 11:30 am to 7:30 pm.

I subscribed to 4 Mbps plan but the speed drops to as much as 256 kbps during peak hours.

An important point is local bandwidth used by sites like youtube.com and other CDN powered sites are not affected. So I still get great speeds at youtube.

But downloading from many other sites is affected a lot. So to avoid this problem use the following IP proxies to get your full subscribed bandwidth.

14.139.225.90:3128
220.225.4.250:3128

14.139.225.83:3128
124.124.93.155:3128
202.131.100.202:808

41.217.215.238:3128
61.12.25.167:3128
109.123.126.253:8080
188.165.249.205:3128
112.217.228.212:8080

To use these proxies effectively, initially load the webpage containing the desired video without the proxy enabled. After the webpage has loaded and if the video buffers while playing then just switch on the proxy and then replay the video or refresh the page.
Use browser plugins like Foxy Proxy, Proxy Anywhere, etc. for fast and easy switching between proxies.

I have thought a lot about this problem and I think that this problem is due to poor BGP routing issue from BSNL. All the BGP paths are passing through a selected few New York based international routers which face increased load at peak time.

The above proxies use Tata's or Reliance's BGP transit path and also their international bandwidth which have greater network capacity so I get high speeds.
Tested in Kalyan telecom region.

It should work for MTNL, Sify, Tikona, Meghbela, Hathway, Railtel and Fivenet too.
Do post your comments on this...

Since these proxies keep dying within a few days of posting and also because this post receives the maximum no. of  views, I would like to share the technique to find the right proxy if anyone is interested to find more on their own.
1. Go to http://www.xroxy.com/proxylist.php?port=&type=&ssl=&country=IN&latency=1000&reliability=9000#table
and check each ip at http://bgp.he.net/ for a peer entry of TATA COMMUNICATIONS/VSNL.

2. Now you may test the proxy status and speed by downloading some file or at http://speedtest.net.

3. You may see the results for yourself by selecting a distant server like Honolulu(HI) at speedtest.net and running the test with and without the proxy and then compare the two results.

4. If there are no proxies in the xroxy list, try increasing the latency time but never compromise on reliability.

5. Spectranet, Tikona, Hathway and Railtel users may use the above procedure with additional benefit of selecting proxies which have peering with BHARTI AIRTEL.

6. If highly reliable foreign proxies are required then go to http://www.xroxy.com/proxylist.php?port=&type=All_http&ssl=&country=&latency=1000&reliability=9000#table in step 1.
You will get a much longer list (more work!) but at least those found by following rest of the steps wont die within a month.

Hack Bsnl Broadband Accounts Updated 2012

If you are a long term user of BSNL broadband then you all must have tried to hack bsnl accounts many a times by now. In this post I am only going to repeat the famous ip scanning trick, but I am adding few updates from my own experience.
The IP scanning trick works and I have tested it myself.

Newcomers may refer to this good old trick here
http://www.binarytides.com/blog/hack-bsnl-broadband-accounts/

My additional updates will be -

1. Use angry IP Scanner to directly get your own IP (run as admin).
Download it from this link http://www.mediafire.com/?kej7xt37i50sp6r

2. Set both the ports 80 and 23 for scanning and manual checking.

3. Default username,password for most routers is (admin,admin).
For "iBall Baton 150M Wireless-N" router, the credentials are (support,support).

4. Now go in "Advanced Setup/WAN" section and edit the WAN interface having VPI/VCI value as 0/35. Keep clicking on next to get to the password page. Password will be available only for "PPP over Ethernet (PPPoE)" mode and NOT for "Bridging" mode. If it says bridging mode then exit and go to next router IP.

5. For getting password, use manual technique of viewing frame source code, searching for the word "password" in the HTML code and noting down the string in the "value" field.

6. For D-Link ADSL Router, the password is not directly available. First, go to Internet Setup, edit connection  with vpi/vci as 0/35. After this, view frame source will give you username.
For password go to the link http://<victim's IP>/internet_js.html. In this page, search for password and you will find it.

7. After all this, the main part is to repeat the above steps for the entire set of hosts found by Angry IP Scanner in one go. Collect as many usernames as possible and try your luck with each one, you will definitely get lucky with atleast 1-2 passwords among the 30-40 IPs found by scanner. Keep on putting the usernames on your BSNL dial-up box till it gets connected successfully. Most of them will be port binded, but believe me when I say that some are still left unsecured.

8. Avoid the usernames ending with "_wcdr"; they wont work.

9. After getting the usernames, you may also access their mailboxes at http://mail.bsnl.in.

10. Please don't misuse or overuse the connection. Trick for educational purpose only.

Enable landscape mode for java apps and games

If you want to enable landscape mode in any J2ME(Java for mobiles) jar application, its very easy !!!!!

Open the .jar file with WinRAR.

Find a folder called META-INF.

Browse inside that folder to get a file named MANIFEST.MF

Open this manifest file in notepad and enter the following lines as applicable:
------------------------------------------------------

MIDlet-ScreenMode: Landscape
MIDlet-Touch-Support: True

Now save the file and update the archive and re-install the application in your mobile.

The first line enables landscape or full screen mode.

The second line enables touch support for some touch-enabled apps by removing the default java keypad
(only for touch phones).

Tested in Samsung and Nokia phones.

Reliance free 3 GB 3G/GPRS pack activation

As you all may know that currently there is offer going on by Reliance called the "Blue Android bot".
In this offer they are giving 3 GB FREE 3G DATA FOR 3 MONTHS which provides free data up to 1 GB per month for three months.

So the trick is to insert any Reliance sim in any handset and then, if you are lucky, you may get the plan activated on your sim too.
The good news is that the handset may NOT even be of Android OS. Mine was a Java powered Samsung handset and coincidentally the plan was activated on my sim.
Another good thing is that my sim was not even a new one, which means that this offer may be applicable to all the Reliance subscribers and not just prospective ones.

So, I wish everybody best of luck... :) and may everyone enjoy their "ANDROID" experience :):)

Uninor free gprs hack

There are no internet charges for direct IP access on port 80 via HTTP.
This means that if you access any website via its IP directly, you wont be charged.
Beware, accessing via domain name is still chargeable.
Ex:
Try this address http://wapking.com and you will be charged 20p.
But try this IP http://95.211.173.205 and there is no charge!!!

So use HTTP port 80 proxy IP in default browser to access free browsing and downloading with uninor gprs profile.
One currently working proxy IP is 41.158.128.190:80

Else you can use reverse IP trick with Opera Mini browser by setting proxy IP in internet settings same as that of opera mini server IP.

You can find more port 80 HTTP proxies here:
1. http://www.proxynova.com/proxy-server-list/country-in/
2. http://hidemyass.com/proxy-list

ALSO,
RTSP video streaming is also not being charged if url uses direct IP access.
Ex:
rtsp://217.146.95.166:554/playlist/ch65yqcif.3gp ..... (from yamgo.mobi)
The above link is not being charged at all!!!

But youtube link may be chargeable as it does not use direct IP access.

Tested on 4th May 2012 in Mumbai circle.

CAUTION:

1. Do NOT use http proxy working on any port other than 80.
2. Do NOT use socket mode in Opera Mini.
