Hello Sarang. 1) Default Login ID/Password depends on the manufacturer of the router and not Airtel. I am using Airtel and have D-Link router provided by Airtel. The default credentials are admin/password. (some models have default as administrator/password)
2) Airtel provides static IP. (if you manage to login to router, you will see it). As mentioned, it blocks some port at ISP side. Also, I am not able to ping my router from outside even after enabling the setting "Allow Remote Login". Hope this helps. ..Dhaval Ved On Tue, May 3, 2011 at 4:17 PM, Sarang Lakare <sarang.lak...@gmail.com>wrote: > Thank you for your replies. > > Arun, I do not clearly understand what you mean by "public IP".
