Setup Beetel 450TC1 Modem
It was finally a success setting up the new wireless modem, Beetel 450TC1. After struggling for about 4 hours, I got everything right and internet was working!
Our dad had been asking me to put a wireless modem for 2 months now. I had to get it done as this task was pending for a long time.
1. I took the old modem settings as reference. At this point, I could not decipher the existing password with BSNL connection. After trying out few permutations and combinations, I failed to move further. Only solution was to make the current password display on my browser. After checking out Firefox add-ons, I got one that displayed password in clear text. Password cracked!
2. Setting up Beetel 450TC1 modem was interesting. At 30 minutes past midnight, I had luck in getting the right tutorial from a youtube video.
