Configuring a speedstream 5100 modem

[SCMc]

My internet provider is Earthlink. After 7 years, my modem failed. I have an old Speedstream 5100 modem that works, but it is configured for SBC Global. If I use the address: 192.168.0.1 on the modem, it takes me to an SBC & Efficient Networks page. The page provides information on:

• Connection Info
  • User ID (old account)
  • Connected Data
  • IP Adress
  • IP Gateway
  • Mode
• Modem Info
  • Modem Name
  • Model
  • Serial Number
  • Software Version
  • MAC Address

There are also [Disconnect] and [Restart Modem] buttons.


Earthlink has been no help (which is unfortunately typical). Can I reconfigure this modem to connect to Earthlink?

Please be patient with me if I do not get back to replies promptly. I am left using library computers for internet connection, and am unable to get to the library every day.
