Re: Speedstream 5100 cannot Access
SBC 5100a IP 10.0.0.1 | 
Odd 5100 Not SBC Router IP 192.168.1.1 | 
Reatil 5100 Router IP 192.168.254.254 |
said by xTony:
The ip address of the modem is usually underneath the modem itself (mine is 192.168.0.1)
Really?? I take it you do not know that IP is only for SBC 5100b modems and NOTHING else?? 
Real 5100s use 192.168.254.254 and early (no longer available) 5100a that SBC first used have an IP of 10.0.0.1 and NONE of those have the IP address printed on the bottom. Then there is a odd 5100 that uses 192.168.1.1 so you have no way of telling what the IP is if you do not have a 5100b from SBC. |

Basic answer to off-topic post: No, YOU cannot adjust the speed.
Now, back to our regularly scheduled question and answer period, concentrating on the original question.

The speed is normally controlled by the ISP. There isn't anything you can do on the modem to change that. |

Is there anyway to change the Max download speed on a Speedstream 5100? I can access the Config Menu but I don't see a way to up the speed.. |

I have tried and on other computers. Each time that i was testing the router(s) only one of my NICs is enable, i haven't face problems again. (but thanks for the advice that windows have problems with 2 or more NICs).
Thanks again.
Have a nice day!  |

You are Welcome. Congratulations on your success. 
Why did you forget to mention an important fact that your PC has Two (2) NICs??  It seems there is always a problem when a Window's PC has Two (2) NICs.  A *Nix box doesn't exhibit the same problems as a Windows box does with multiple NICs.
Please, in the future, always state that you have more than one NIC.
Regards,

After 100 resets and still nothing, i forgot him open over 7 hours and just connected him to my second NIC. Sundely works...without touch anything on 192.168.254.254!!!
I dont know what to say!! Strange things...may be the setup wants more time ...
LOL
Thanks again for your Help!! |
