To cross check what typ of connection that you have (in windows) use command line Windows plus R type cmd or command and enter and use the "ipconfig -all" command this will give you all the detaisl you require to cross check Another more advanced method - which allows you to fiddle around with the BSNL router itself is to type http://192.168.0.1 (the normal default ip address of the router) in your web browser this will lead you to an interface of the router the exact ip of the bsnl router can be got from your ipconfig command the same method can be used in Ubuntu as well. ram
