[Siemens] Seimens SpeedStream 4200 - How to access config

I have a couple of the SpeedStream ADSL routers I just got today from Valor Telecom for testing. The IP address I use is 192.168.254.254. The default username is admin and default password is admin. I have not been able to get to any of the REAL configuration pages. It always asks me for the username and password but fails to login. I was given a "back door" username and password from Valor but these ALSO will not allow me to get the the real configuration pages. You should find the Bridge Mode under WAN Interface but I couldn't say for sure because I cannot access that page :|

Anyone know how to get past this stupid login issue? I've searched and found nothing helpful on the net so far. I can get to and create new user accounts and change the admin account username and password but I am still unable to access any of the configuration pages.

I actually found how to get onto mine it was using 10.0.0.138 and the username was admin password was admin. I was able to put it into bridge mode but could not get the netgear wirelsss router to function with it ... anyone got any idea how to do this? Telstra in Australia told me they do not support bridge mode but surely there is a way to get it working

Know if the 4200 is NAT or NATP? I am having trouble playing an online game (Asherons Call) that requires NAT. It uses Loose UDP Routing and won't work with NATP. Its weird. I use Cox Cable at the office and it (laptop) works fine, but bring it home and it won't work on Valor with the Speedstream. Any ideas would be GREATLY appreciated!!!!

Im having the same problems still. The speedstream 4200 from valor is loaded with a custom firmware, and if there is a password that will allow you to change any of the setup, only valor telecom has it and they are not exactly willing to give it up. i was thinking that if we had an original siemens firmware for it that it could be flashed, but that requires getting into the setup page...im hoping to see a solution to this soon.

I work tech support for valor. To access the DSL modem config, open IE and go to »192.168.254.254. Username/pass should be admin/admin, unless it's been changed to something else. If that's the case, you *should* be able to reset the modem back to default settings by hitting the reset button on the back of it. That will reset the user/pass back to admin/admin.

The modem shipped out from Bigpond is setup as DHCP server, so to find out the IP address, set your PC to request IP from DHCP server and then from a command prompt do "ipconfig /all". The dhcp server address is your 4200 modem address, which is normally 10.0.0.138 (BigPond default).
The mode you need to setup in the modem is "PPPoE bridge mode" in which the modem is transparently passing through PPPoE and allow PPPoE client to start on device behind the modem (PC or Router) as suppose to just normal "Bridged" subscriber.

To do this from scratch you need to go
from "WAN interface"
and then "add a new VC"
and then select "PPPoE" as the protocol (DO NOT SELECT "RFC-2684 Bridged" on this screen!!)
next, for the PPPoE configuration select "Bridge only".
Follow the wizard till finish and then reboot...

This will allow PPPoE client to start behind the modem and the PC/Router to terminate and authenticate PPPoE session.

Cheers,

I think I have figured out (in my case with Valor) that the "super user" username is valor. If I log in as admin and try to create a profile named "valor", it states that one already exists by that name. Now if I (or Valor tech support) could figure out what the password is, I would be set. I also discovered that something is going on with 192.168.254.1 as well as 192.168.254.254 (the stated default addy). The .1 addy askes for a UN and PW also. Telneting into the .254 also requests and UN and PW but the admin/admin doesn't work.

I too just got a 4200 modem from valor, and need to change some of the locked settings, if any of you are able to get the username and password from valor, please let me know.

Guys need to call Valor and ask to get it bridged by tech support getting in touch with DSL engineering. They can do this instantly remotely. The supervisor password is not given out, even I dont know it. I have to get it done via DSL engineering, aka Network Admins.

Why don't they give out that password? If I go buy a dsl modem from Best Buy, I'd have full access to the settings, whats the difference?

I think I'm missing something here... are you guys PAYING for these routers..?

As in, you drop the service, you still get to keep the unit..?

But they keep the password locked up..?

Hmmmmm....
