In your browser type 192.16.0.1 and it will take you to the modem admin page.

Press the check connection button and it will tell you how your connections are doing. If it shows DSL/Internet down, then most likely your ISP is down 95% likely), or your modem is bad (happens pretty often with these things)

If it doesn't take you to the page, try using 10.0.0.1
some of the newer 5100s have that as their address. Same options and advice.

I have the speedstream 5100 modem. I just replaced my xp machine with a windows 8 and I can't get to the internet now. It tells me ethernet doesn't have a valid IP configuration. Any sugges

If you do not have a router you have to reboot the modem first, Modems pair with one device at a time using its MAC address, using a router allows you to add remove computers to your internet access without rebooting the router for every device because the modem pairs to the router and the router shares its internet with your other devices.

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.

Thank you for choosing Fixya

Computer tells me i have no internet connection but im online

this sounds like the internet service is available because the internet light does come on but it sounds like the password is incorrect. i suggest you contact your ISP to confirm you access is ok

Option 1 (easy)
you could buy a switch or router and put in line with your modem.
you will have to set up appropriate networking on the xbox
DSL --> MODEM --> SWITCH <-- PC

Option 2 (harder)
you could get a wired/wireless AP (Access Point) for your PC and run ICS (Internet Connection Sharing) through Windows. connect the XBOX through your PC
