I have a SpeedStream 5260 and sometimes the network just stops and/or gets super slow (at least a few times a day), will a faster modem correct the situation? Is there a problem with my current modem?

Can anyone help me to switch from a "new" modem provided by Earthlink back to my trusty Speedstream 5360 modem? I assumed the new DSL modem would be faster than my old one, but it is S-L-O-W and I cannot figure out how to switch back. I'm running Mac OS10.4.11, have the DSL going into the modem, an ethernet cable going from the modem to a new D-Link gaming router, another ethernet cable going from the router to a new D-Link switch, and then two cables to two computers, two other cables to two printers. Old-fashioned, but it works. What I cannot figure out is how to tell my computer to talk to the old modem, not the new one. Or why this has all ground to a dizzle. Have been with earthlink on the same line for years, and it's either the modem or something in the lines. Probably simple, but I'm stumped and frustrated. Thanks very much.
