Efficient Networks SpeedStream 5100 Modem Logo
Anonymous Posted on Oct 12, 2009

The internet light is off all others green on the 5100 modem. Also, very slow internet and hard to go to various webpages. Will this correct itself over time or is there a quick fix?

You can try resetting the modem to factory condition.
Turn off the modem from power
Disconnect the modem from the computer
Turn on the modem
Press the reset button using a pointed object, (a toothpick or a pencil)
Wait for all the lights to flash green then release the button
Reboot your computer
Connect the modem to your computer

Everything should work fine.

If the problem persists contact the service provider.

1. In your web browser browse to »192.168.0.1 This address will be located on a yellow sticker on the bottom of your modem.

3. At the login screen type in your SBC/AT&T member ID and password.
4. Click Connect.

Green blinking internet light on verizon westell 6100 modem.

Yes. When you power down the modem you are suppose to power down the pc. That is what the machine tell you before you get a tech person. It could be that your cache is getting full causing slow speeds.

1st time installation: cannot install modem properly

If the internet light is red, it is not fine. Are you talking to AT&T support?. While on the phone with them, I had to re-add my username and password with IE and then they had to reset my connection and it worked. Give AT&T Internet support a call.

The modem has green lights for power, but the DSL light either flickers green or goes to solid red.

Try power turning off once and if still remains the problem then the problem could be with internet service provider so contact them once. and if they say we are good then you need to look at internal bugs.
for that visit following website where you can find complete service manuals.
