post12: BSNL DataOne [auto schedule ON/OFF for WinXP users] (YFH)

BSNL provides dynamic IP address for DataOne users, which changes on disconnecting & reconnecting.. where xxx represnts the variable part of IP..
[ this property is very much useful when sites store your IP addresses, & limit your download options; e.g. rapidshare.com-uploaded files.. ]

• if u're IP is 59.93.xxx.xxx, then u can use any versions of DQUF, but i recommend v 0.5.0.17
• if u're IP is 117.xxx.xxx.xxx, then u have to use only DQUF v 0.7.0.0

(u can contact me at rupakkd@gmail.com for the installer

or else, Google it..)

i'll tell you, what i do.. but people may opine differently.. for WinXP users ONLY
{ Summary of what i suggest for the auto-scheduled ON/OFF of computer for BSNL DataOne Home500/500C/500C+ users

------ night half ------

(a) auto wake-up from sleep/stand by mode by windows' task scheduler;
(b) auto connection of DataOne BB by DQUF
(c) scheduled running of uTorrent.exe at specific time

------ morning half ------

(d) auto disconnection of DataOne BB by DQUF
(e) auto shutdown by an external scheduler }

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

1. Install/Run DQUF > (Change DataOne Usage Plan) Home 500 > Options (tab) > Admin URL (choose any) > Run at Startup | Minimize to tray | enable connection scheduling > Refresh > (set times as per ur convenience) [i use 01:58:00; 02:12:00; 07:58:00; 08:05:00].
Having done this, u're ready for task2/task4, i.e. connection/discnnection by DQUF

------

2. Run > (type) "Tasks" > Add Scheduled Task > Browse (for uTorrent.exe in Program Files only..) > Daily > 2:00; Everyday > (enter password, if your user profile has one) > Open Adv. Prop. when i click Finish > (go to settings tab) > (check) Wake the comp. to run this task
[all other settings that are set by default, not mentioned here, are to be left as it is..]
Having done this, u're ready for task1/task3, i.e. wake-up/run uTorrent.exe
N.B. please ensure that the "uTorrent" time is set before the reconnection time, cz DQUF can only work if comp is ON or in wake-up mode. alternatively, u can also create a separate task scheduler for DQUF, and wakeup comp thru it..

------

3. Use an external scheduler to turn off the comp at 7:59 AM. Allow "Force apps to close" etc settings as per needs.. I, myself use an app called PowerOff.
PowerOff: http://www.esnips.com/doc/473f4a54-d375-4857-aafe-429a6a4138b7/poweroff
Having done this, u're ready for the last task/task5, i.e. shutdown

------

4. test run for a single day.. i.e. remain awake and observe if all the scheduling are going as per ur settings
Having done this, u're ready for task1-5, i.e. a/b/c/d/e

------

now what u've to do..
>> turn on ur comp before 2AM
>> set it to standby/sleep mode
>> forget evrything else & have a nice sleep
