All those facts in your last post are not correct. BSNL router is capable of routing. A DSL router from BSNL have 2 IP addresses, 1.LAN IP 2.WAN IP , The LAN IP is set to 12.168.1.1 by default but *we can change it*. WAN IP is a dynamic IP which is allotted for your modem session by the DHCP server of the ISP which is in this case BSNL. WAN IP is used to access the modem ( and your network ) from outside the LAN. You can get your current WAN IP ( or public IP ) from this link : http://www.ip-adress.com/ this address is changed usually after each reboot of your router. Static IP and Dynamic IP are defined by the method it is assigned to a computing device. If IP is assigned manually or set by hand like in the LAN IP of our router, it is called static IP, but it doesn't mean we can't change it. Dynamic IP is assigned by the Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) server. The WAN IP is allotted to the router, by the DHCP server of the ISP... One can get a static public IP based on the type of connection provided by the ISP. BSNL provides upto 50 public IPs for leased line connections...
