Beetel 450 TC1 is a WiFi Modem with four Ethernet ports. The Modem support latest ADSL and WiFi standards with a maximum download speed of 24Mbps. You can configure this for BSNL, MTNL or any other ADSL broadband connections through the user friendly web interface.
Connect this Modem with your PC/Laptop by using the supplied Ethernet Cable. Open the browser and type http://192.168.1.1. Type username = admin and password=admin in the popup window. Now the modem configuration page will be displayed
Select the Interface Setup Menu
Now you have to configure the Modem as per your requirement. The Modem may be preconfigured with Multiple Virtual Circuits as per the ISP. You have to edit/delete the preconfigured circuits according to your ISP. Click the PVC summery button to get the Service Information summary. In this popup window you will get the pre configured circuits.
If you want to configure your Modem for BSNL select the PVC which is configured with VPI=0 and VCI=35 (In this screenshot it is PVC2). For MTNL go for the PVC which is configured with VPI=0, VCI=32 (In the screenshot it is not present . In this case you have to select any PVC and edit it). For Airtel go for the PVC configured with VPI=1, VCI=32 (Here it is PVC0)
Close the Summery Popup window and select the required PVC as specified in the above mentioned step. Now here we have selected PVC2 for configuring the modem for BSNL broadband connection (Remember we selected PVC2 because it is already configured with VPI=0 and VCI=32 which is the settings for BSNL)
Select ATM QoS as UBR
Encapsulation ISP PPPoE/PPPoA
In PPPoE/PPPoA
- Service name (Anything to identify your ISP- say dataone, MTNL, Airtel etc)
- Username and Password (Supplied by your ISP)

WiFi Configuration and Security settings of Beetel 450 TC1 Modem
Select the Wireless Submenu under the Interface setup (See screenshot)
Access Point Settings
- Access Point: Activated
- Channel: India – Auto
- Transmit Power : High (If you want to limit the usage within your room can set to medium or low)
- You can keep all the other settings to default.
Multiple SSID Settings
- SSID Index: 1
- Broadcast SSID: Yes (If you want to keep the SSID secret can set it to “No”. In this case the router will not broadcast the SSID (Name of your WiFi network). Then you have to type the SSID manually in your PC while establishing the connection.
- SSID: Identification name of your network
- Authentication Type: This is the security setting of your Network. Which decides the authentication and encryption techniques. The available options are Disabled, WEP64 bit, WEP 128 bit, WPA PSK and WPA2 PSK. Avoid using outdated technologies like WeP. Select WPA2-PSK or WPA PSK from the drop down menu
WPA PSK/WPA2 PSK
- Set the WPA encryption to TKIP or AES
- Enter a non guessable key (No dictionary words) mixed with figures and characters in WPA Pre Shared Key field.
- In WPA group interval field, you can enter 100(This is the interval between the keys are refreshed means of you set 100 your keys will be refreshed every 100 seconds)
Wireless MAC address filter
Mac filtering will give you additional foolproof WiFi security. MAC (Media Access Control) address is a unique number of each network hardware. This is the identity of a machine . There will not be two network cards (Any type) with a same MAC address. This is the manufacture set hard coded one.
Through the MAC filtering you can optionally allow or deny a particular WiFi device on your network. You have to enter the MAC address of the client machines in the Modem to allow or deny a particular machine. For example – You have four laptops in a network and you want to enable MAC filtering. For this the MAC address of each machines to be entered in the Modem for connectivity, means you have to save the addresses of all four machines in your Modem.
How to find MAC address
- For Windows PC go to start > Run ant type cmd
- Then type ipconfig/all and you will get some values as displayed.
- Note down the physical address of WiFi adaptor – This is your MAC address.
Important: You might have noted down the MAC Address like this 02-14-C4-C2-98-26 but if you enter like this Modem will display an error message “invalid MAC address”. You have to replace the “-“ with “:” means to enter the address like 02:14:C4:C2:98:26
- To enable the Mac filtering Set the Mac Address filtering to “Activated”
- Set the Action to “Allow association”
- Enter the MAC address of your devices in the Mac Address fields
Save the settings and Reboot the Modem. Then connect your PC, Laptops or Smart phones using WiFi.

What is coming under the Authentication Type Field? You are not getting the drop down menu?
Which OS you are using?
m able to see drop-down but it is preset-ed as ‘wpa2 enterprise’ and i cant select that drop-down menu mean m not able to click on drop-down so that it shows me other options for authentication!!
M using Microsoft XP
reply please…
Sorry for the delay, Plz check the Access point is “Activated” or not. As you are using microsoft XP SP2, WPA 2 is not supported. Use WPA personal.
wpa2 enterprise is preselected. it can not be changed because i have no access to select other options!
can you give me your mail id please so that i can send you screen-shot for that page.

Hello,
I’m unable to change Authentication Type under wireless. Its a readonly field. Need your support.
Thanks
Chethan
am also facing the same problem of authentication under wireless!!
plz some1 help..
Please confirm that you are using the Modem supplied by Airtel or not?
i am using the modem of beetel i.e. 450tc1 but not provided by airtel, i have purchased it from market.
It has been observed that the higher firmware versions have some problems with editing of WiFi Authentication type. One option is to downgrade the firmware to a lower version. Remember care should be taken while doing that. Backup your old firmware first.
You can download the firmware from here http://122.166.105.80/Firmwares/IPTV-FIRMWARE/FIRMWARE/BEETEL-450TC1/
thanku sir.. thanx a lot with only your support i am able to configure my modem.
thanx a lot!!

Hi,
Is there any way to disable MGMNT ssid for beete; 450TC1? as its by default and it’s key also known to everybody? I’m worrying of wireless network security. BEETEL 450TC1 mannual displays the key and SSID.
thanks

Hi,
I too have the same issue and could not disable “MGMNT” SSID for beetel 450TC1. Can anyone help me in this regard?

N.T. Raman
Do u know, how to disable MGMNT ssid? if yes please, share.
Hello Mr. Sujith:
I am looking to setup WDS between 450TC1 and Belkin router (F5D7230-4). While the WDS setting is easily available on the Belkin router, I am unable to find the same on the 450TC1. I see Mr Rajat list out this option hence I presume this option is available on this model. Does this have to do with the Firmware version? The model that was provided to me by MTNL very recently reads version V85.2.04.02.
Your earliest response would be much appreciated.
Regards
Tanmay
Hello,
I too had a problem with setting up WiFi, but if you downgrade your firmware version, you can select the encryption type of the MGMNT network to WPA2 PSK. The link is given in the thread.
After editing and saving the configuration, the modem works good. Anyway all this was sometime back.
The new problem now is that the connection keeps dropping and coming on very frequently and one strange error I get is that in the Status window, it shows PPP password invalid.
Has anyone had this problem of invalid PPP password?
Does this modem( Beetel 450TC1) has Bridging facility between same models?
I need settings for I Pad 2 wifi. We have MTNL connection and router model 450 TC 1.
The ipad is showing internet connected but on opening internet, the browser says ‘not connected to internet’. Is this a router problem or settings problem.
Did you find the solution on how to fix this yet?
I have been having this issue for a month now…a bit frustrated..please help
THANX
I need settings for I Pad 2 wifi. We have MTNL connection and router model 450 TC 1.
The ipad is showing internet connected but on opening internet, the browser says ‘not connected to internet’ and if it connects it only stays connected for 5 minutes before I have to turn on and off aiplane mode.
@Pramod: What is the current firmware version on your router?
My iPad connects ok but disconnects from the Internet after a couple of minutes. I have to go to the iPad settings and turn off wifi and turn it on again. I suspect the problem is with the router ‘cos it works fine on other wifi networks( not at home). Specifically, I think it has to do with using different wifi channels. Try using only 802.11n
@Pramod and @Abihost
I am experiencing the same issue issue on ipad, iphone and ipod touch.
I keep having to go Settings and enable air plane mode and then disable it.
However, i dont seem to experience this issue on my Android phone. The android phone doesnt require any fiddling with the wifi settings. It just works everytime.
So just wondering if its got to do with a particular router setting that impacts only iOS devices?
I am new to these “boards” so please excuse me if I am being redundant but there are multiple issues discussed here so I wonder if ….anyone found the solution on how to fix this yet?

The ipad is showing internet connected but on opening internet, the browser says ‘not connected to internet’ and if it connects it only stays connected for 5 minutes before I have to turn on and off airplane mode.
Just to key everyone with the iPad disconnect issue know that I got the mtnl 450tc1 router switched out by the company and although it had the same firmware version it works fine and does not disconnect
I also have the same problem when connecting to the mtnl 450tc1 modem from my ipad2. the connection goes off every 2 minutes and i have to go to settings and forget the mtnl network and connect again. I am very frustrated and do not know the solution to the problem. i understand some others have the same problem, if anyone has a solution it will be appreciated if it is posted here.
i am having the same problem…. i have mtnl connection with 450 tc1 modem… net connects to the ipad and works fine but disconnects when non using net on ipad even for 5 minutes….if i am reading a email and by the time i reply it gets disconnected… some problem with modem co it worksfine on other wifi networks… someone plz give us a solution..
Hi, I am using Beetel TC1 type wireless router from MTNL. My problem is that wireless network signal is dropping in the other room as there are 2 walls in between the wireless modem and the point of use . We are not able to use ipad , iphones etc. in that room . I need a compatible Access point or signal repetitor which can be configured with MTNL wireless modem. I was suggested to use tp link / netgear access point for this purpose. Can anybody confirm if this access point is useful for my application. Is configuration simple with MTNL router.
Guys, As already asked by others, How to disable the MGMNT ssid on beetel 450 TCI, Since the password is known to all. I’m worried about security n usage.
Select a new SSID instead of default.
Use mac filtering for added security. It will prevent unauthorized access even if the ssid and password are known
Sir, I did create new ssid, with my surname with authentication WPA2-PSK. But still I can see 2 ssid. With MGMNT.
Hello,
Looks like there are ome more people who are not able to select Authentication Type as WPA2-PSK .Well, as already told in the mail thread before, the reason you are not able to select Authentication Type is because of your modem’s Firmware Version. You can see which you have under the Maintainence> Firmware tab. I had the same problem too. When I got the modem, the Firmware Version was TM4-0Q-025. I downgraded the Firmware to use version TM4-0Q-008 and I was able to select the Authentication Type.. Follow these native steps to select the Authentication Type:
Note: Its recommended to take a backup of the current firmware version on your modem.
1. Navigate to http://122.166.105.80/Firmwares/Beetel%20450TC1/.
2. Click and download TM4-0Q-008.zip.
3. Unzip the file to your local drive. If you do not have a zipping utility, download the same from http://www.winzip.com/downwz.htm.
4. From your computer or device, log into the home page of the modem (type, http:\\192.168.1.1 in the Address Filed of you browser. Use admin as the us and pw)
5. Click the Maintainence tab
6. Under Maintainence tab click on > Firmware tab
7. Under Firmware/Romfile Upgrade section click Browse
8. Navigate to the location where you downloaded and saved the file in step3.
9. Click UPGRADE
After the upgrade, restart the modem by selecting Current Settings radio button. You can also disable MGMNT by selecting a different SSID Index. You can actually give your own name for the SSID when you select a new SSID Index. You may also notice that you always see two SSIDs when your device is searching for the WiFI network, one called AirTel and the other called MGMNT. To avoid seeing Airtel, set the Broadcast SSID field to No for Airtel SSID Index.
It’s done. Thank you.
Thank u very much sir . Ur installation procedure helped to get my WIFI working

How are you connecting to the router? Are you using a physical LAN cable or Wireless?
From what you say, I guess it’s thro, wireless. Connect your router to your device or pc using a LAN cable and then try opening the modem setup page by typing 192.168.1.1 in the browser of your device or pc.
Not working user name password admin

Plz tell … how can i find wan driver for beetel 450tc1 … plz help me…
Go through the previous comments.
Try this as your login details:
Username: admin
Password: password
It sometimes works, but really wonder how it changes back and forth from admin to password:(. The best thing is to set your own us and pw from I’m not sure but I think it’s from the Maintaince page.
Mr Sujith
We are having a problem with Airtel broadband. The service guy came and said we need to replace the modem. Only the internet light is off. The rest are on. After he left we could connect to the net, but we are having problems with the speed and it is getting disconnected often. The Airtel Engineer says that even if the modem is ‘spoiled’ it will work when you switch it off and on and insists that we get the modem replaced and says Airtel speed is not at fault. Is he trying to hoodwink us? If a modem is not working can it connect to the net, or do they want us to buy one since the warranty just got over. Would appreciate a reply. Thanks
If the Modem is faulty, you can’t connect to Internet. Frequent disconnection problem is mainly due to the Noise in line. Frequent disconnection is mainly due to
1. Faulty cable joints.
2. Your location is too far from ISP node.
3. Poor quality of cables
4. Faulty Modem
Thank you sir, for promptly responding. Will check with a spare modem and then act accordingly.
Thank you for the clarification.

Need your expert advise as to whether I can use the Beetel modem which was provided by Airtel to use BSNL broadband. If yes, what settings do I need to do?
If No, which Router with Modem will you suggest for BSNL broadband.
Thanks in advance!

Dear Sujith,
Is it possible to share the bandwidth using this modem in home network? because we 8 people are sharing the airtel broad band and some ppl are eating the bandwidth like anything. So we need to share it among ourself. Pls guide me.
If not possible to share the bandwidth with this modem, pls tell me which modem I need to buy to fulfil my need.
Thanks and Regards,

mail me @ : ranjith.bhas@gmail.com
It is impracticable with this router. However through QoS Settings you can restrict the bandwidth consumption of individual nodes against P2P networks. (QOs settings of this router http://192.168.1.1/qosqmgmt.html) For effective bandwidth restriction you have to use some third party applications like DU meter on each PCs or hardware interfaces like UTM.

You can purchase online from Microsoft Online shop (Presently the site is down ). Another good option is ebay http://www.ebay.in/sch/i.html?_from=R40&_trksid=m570&_nkw=windows+7&_sacat=See-All-Categories
You can consult your nearest computer shop.
No idea about Lenovo offers on annual maintenance. You can contact the customer care of Lenovo India (http://www.lenovo.com/services_warranty/in/en/index.html)
