single voice may not be effective to wake BSNL or Sify. Anyway, the time i had sify, I used to do, login in Windows, connect Sify, then remove the Network wire, adn restart the comp. in Linux and there you go. *** Since sify has static MAC-IP list based connection, so please be sure that your Network Interface Card has not been assigned different MAC Addr by yourself.
The sify client binaries available is a pain in *donkey*. That installs, you need to configure it as a service, run it with lot stupid step to find the cooonection which keeps breaking in just 5 mins or less. and maybe that linux client is now old enough to try, since Sify has revised the method and released newwer version of the client. The OVERALL thing is: sift really sucks. Even in connection quality, help, maintinance and most prominently Linux support. Even Window$ support is worst in sify.
