I had tried this trick in school with a 20gb hdd it did work.... Havnt tried it since.....You need to be really quick or else the hdd might crash by the time you get to backing up the data....

If you do not use a dialer for the Mtnl modem then just enable(auto ip)and dhcp in ur dlink router im sure dlink has most of the configs ready....If its a dialer you will have to setup pppoe or pppoa settings.... You will have to get all the settings before setting up your dlink router..... You can try searching on google for the settings maybe call mtnl and ask them for it .... Called Reliance and the girl either did not know but she did know a lot of excuses.... I found my reliance setting over Google and it worked fine..... It was pppoe and i found all the other settings like vci and vpi over google.....

OK,my ISP provides up to 20Mbps, while my partner has a fibre optic connection of up to 50Mbps.
As you can see, we use different ISPs. (But I think I mentioned that in an earlier post).

Thank you, everyone, for the replies so far, by the way.

1st you are using 2 different connections and you both need to get onto 1 internet service provider...

That will get u onto the same wan network that is of the same internet service provider....

U have to request the service from your internet service provider or if you choose to stick with 2 Internet service providers you will have to request the service from both. Trust me the rent is not cheap but it depends on your Internet service provider....

Down side is that you will spend a lot of money on setting this up

Did you ever try a Virtual private network ????

Its better to just buy some ftp space online it will be faster...

yeah file recovery is your best option.... Try looking on google you will find loads of softwares...If you just deleted the files around 90% of the files will be recoverable.

No my ADSL modem is Huawei.

I m using Ubuntu and Sometimes, Windows XP x64.



Internet works fine on both the systems.
I just need to figure out the pinging problem



For Guys who think workgroups work, They don't, all u need is to put up the same Subnet mask and gateway, That ways it always works. Anyways, I tried workgroup also and no it didn't help.

Make sure your adsl modem and the router have different ip addresses IE if both are on 192.168.2.1 then they might be conflicting.....

Disable windows firewall...

When u enter into a workgroup u need file sharing enabled.... Share a drive and then try to ping....

Try Frontpage, Dreamweaver or site grinder... They will help u learn html and with the gui interface it will be very easy for you.....

Have you tried the printer on other computers ???If yes and if the same problem came up then there could be a problem with the printer....

If you are going to over clock so much your system is going to heat up and be unstable....Try getting a better cooler or try and get your computer in a really cold place where it cant heat up to the point where it gets unstable....or you can always buy a gigabyte motherboard and i recommend the Nforce chipset.... U have voltage control for the ram, cup and graphics.... Also they have a software that helps you over clock your ram, cpu and gfx directly from windows......

Ok First is your Adsl modem Belkin too ??? Which Operating system do you have ???Is the internet functioning on your computer or is it just the ping and file sharing ???

Try crimping all the faulty network cables again....you can use any colors.... I would suggest orange-white, orange, Green-white, blue, Blue white, green, Brown-white, brown....

Dee,Which operating system do u have ???If its windows you need to have internet sharing enabled.....

Mr Dee you need to provide more information than that....Like your internet speed and do you and your partner use the same Internet service provider ??

If you have made any changes to the bios try and revert it to the original config....Changes in the bios does slow down your computer sometimes..

Hi Please try and follow the steps bellow will or might help you out1. If you have 2 rams please take one out and boot your computer, If u just have one try shifting the ram onto another slot or borrow a ram from a friend to rule out any problems with the ram. If this did not work....2. If you have data on your hard disk you will have to take your hard disk out and attach it to another computer to backup your data. 3.
