Re: SpeedStream 5260

I don't think that FAQ section is fully accurate. And you are confused as to what a bridge is.

The mode you want is bridging - so that you can place a router behind it, and that's all this unit can do. There is no such thing as unbridging a device that is only a bridge.

As far as not being able to "get into the modem" either you don't know its IP address or there is no telnet capability in it to begin with. Try a browser, but if you don't know the unit's IP address, that's not going to work either.

The FAQ is accurate, but it is missing vital info as it was taken "completely out of context" from this FAQ group »The Unofficial SpeedStream 5260 ---> 5660 FAQ and if you read the "Pending Feedback" at the bottom of the FAQ the OP posted, it shows that FAQ only applies to the Part Number 060-5660-00X Model 5260 which is in essence a hidden 5660 Router. If the OP has a real 5260 Part Number 060-5260-00X or 060-5262-00X or 060-5263-00X then those Models are truly Bridge/Modems only without any Router features or even IP Addresses.

Below is the correct FAQ section link for a true 5260/5262/5263 instead of the mis-used 5260/5660 Router Hybrid FAQ the OP linked to in error.
