BSNL dataone modem problem

[rkar]

Hi All,

My dataone broadband ADSL modem DB108 connects perfectly when using my MS windows. however when i've logged on using linux i am unable even to ping to the modem(192.168.1.1).

The fact that it works on my windows takes away any possibility that it is some wiring issue.

Any idea of what it could be ?


Thanks,
