|  Speedstream 5100 and Router
I just moved and was a customer at my last place. I set up my modem and router with no changes to either configuration, but I can't log in using the router. I can only log in using the modem. Does anyone have any ideas on how I can troubleshoot this?

Madison, CT | You can use EITHER OR but not BOTH for logging in. ATT (SBC) prefers log in using the the modem. You can of course use your computer or router to configure your log in.

Southington, CT | Unfortunately, I understand that, what is happening is that I put the modem in bridge mode and attempt to log in using the router. However, the router can't seem to log me in. But I can log in with the modem. HELP, anybody. |

| Yep, it means it acts as a bridge between two different networks - the WAN (internet) and the LAN (whatever you've got connected to it)BUT you must go into your modem and disable the login for PPPOE. THEN and only then you can login using your computer or router. |

| Yup, tried that and then router continually attempts to log in using the same username and password that was in the modem, but can't seem to log in. I put the modem back into its "default" mode enter the username and password and it works fine. Any idea why the router can't log in? |
