I have 750UL plan and works quite well. But I face slow connection problem when I download lot of historical data from icharts website.
How to apply DNS settings? Will it cause any problems or access restrictions?
Thanks,

750UL will give you approximately 30 Kilo Byte/Sec speed ( 256Kbps means kilobits per sec, you divide it by 8 to get actual speed in bytes since 8 bits=1 byte, it is one byte which represents one character or usable data)
for changing DNS setting log in to 192.168.1.1 in your browser. Normally default userID and Password is admin/admin unless you have changed it.
Go to advance setup and select DNS setting. enter above ip numbers and save. That should be it. As pointed out DNS resolves names . faster , the better. BSNL DNS is rather slow.
As for changing DNS setting in windows network. With two network icon, you have bridge mode connection. Click on Control panel from Start menu.Click on 'Network Connections' icon. Click on the LAN connection. In resulting page click on Properties page.In the dialog page there is a window under general tab listing all windows services. Scroll down to Internet Protocol(TCP/IP) and select it then click on properties button.You will get a page which will list IP address of your gateway ( 192.168.1.1) and Computer IP address(192.168.XX.XX, where XX is a generally a number from 1-255)
Below that you will have settings for DNS connection saying Use the following DNS Server Address. there is one 'Advance' command button.
Click on that.Go to DNS Tab.There will be a box with heading DNS Server Addresses in order of use. Click on Add command button and type one by one both IP addresses and click Add Button. Then use the up and down button to make these IP addresses first two addresses.Don't delete other addresses.They would be DNS IP for BSNL.
Click on OK on each page and close all windows. That's it. Second method is slightly longer.
Image for second method is as below
