0 comments
If you are like one of me who is fed up with BSNL supplied modem like UTStarcom WA3002GA or have a basic modem lying around and UTStarcom WA3002GA modem is acting up when connected to BSNL line.

Steps:

1. Connect one end of Ethernet cable on Laptop / Desktop and other end on the Port1 on your UTStarcom WA3002GA Modem.
