The following is a general config how-to for dataone (sorry I couldn’t find a specific one for Fedora):
“Here is a simple HOWTO for configuring BSNL DataOne on Linux. I assume you have your ethernet card configured, your ADSL modem plugged in and that your card is at eth1.
First assign an IP Address: By default, 192.168.1.1 is the interface address for the router. So you can assign any other IP. I use 192.168.1.100. If you use RedHat/Fedora, do ifconfig eth1 192.168.1.100.
Next, the gateway. On RedHat/Fedora you would do route add default gw 192.168.1.1
Now edit /etc/resolv.conf to configure the DNS server. Put this in:
nameserver 61.1.96.69
nameserver 61.1.96.71
That’s basically it. Restart your network and it should magically start working. Just in case it does not, use your favorite browser to surf to http://192.168.1.1/. Open up the WAN Settings page and check if the WAN type is PPP and connection type is PPPoE. Next ensure the username/password details are correct. The username is usually the first letter of your first name followed by your last name. So my username would be mesteves@dataone. Then type in your password and click Save. Then click Reboot. After a couple of minutes your connection should start working.
On Gentoo you can configure your network card by editing /etc/conf.d/net and adding/modifying the line for eth1 to look like:
iface_eth1 = “192.168.1.100 broadcast 192.168.1.255 netmask 255.255.255.0″
gateway=”eth1/192.168.1.1″
Save the file and do a /etc/init.d/net.eth1 restart and you should be ready to go! Once connected, surf here to check your Dataone service/usage records or change your password. Go here to check your DataOne Webmail.”
