Hi,

I wanted to change my SSID on my Wireless Router/Modem.

I don't remember my Username nor Password to log on, I've tried admin / admin - that has failed.

Do I need to get the Software, if so, where can I find it for the Siemens SpeedStream 6520.

I'm currently on the phone with my ISP, as the modem was offered by them, Tech Agent doesn't seem confident so far.

Thanks in advance.

Can't you just reset the modem so the password will become admin/admin?

Do people not even know what google or yahoo or freaking microsofts live search is??? You might want to suggest that to their tech support ;) Or how about just looking on the makers FAQ site ;)

6520 Modem

1. Turn the modem on. Wait until the modem has stopped booting up and the power light goes solid green.

2. Insert a small tipped object (pen tip or a pin will do) into the hole at the bottom of the modem labelled ‘reset’. You may need to hold this in for a couple of seconds before the reset is initiated. You will know when to let go of the reset hole when the power light starts blinking red/green. Remove the small tipped object. All the lights on the front on the modem should flash green and then red then the modem should start to boot as per normal.

3. Once the power light is on solid the modem should be restored to factory defaults.

Speedstream 6520 reset problems

The secret is to NOT wait for the lights to stop flashing

Hold the reset in until the power light starts flashing

While it is still flashing, let go of the reset switch

When you say, reset - are your referring to just simply turning the modem off then back on?

Because my Modem/Router does not have a "Reset" button.

Thanks.

Like everybody else has said, what I forgot to tell you when resetting it is look for a small pinhole area and press it with a paperclip and hold for about 20 seconds.

I can't believe why a representative isn't able to help you, isn't that like entry level questions?

    • Google's NotebookLM gets some useful features you may have been waiting for by Aditya Tiwari It's been three years since Google introduced its AI-powered note-taking and research app, NotebookLM. Just when Apple is about to kick off WWDC 2026, the search giant has announced a platter of new NotebookLM features that add agentic capabilities in chat and more advanced reasoning. For starters, NotebookLM now draws its fuel from Gemini 3.5 and Antigravity to improve accuracy and reliability. One of the things people have been asking for a long time is more transparency into the thinking steps. NotebookLM now shows expanded thinking steps in chat, providing better visibility into the thinking process. Google compared the upgraded NotebookLM with prior versions and found that it "achieved an average win rate of over 65% — a 15% point margin above parity — across our top five core evaluation dimensions," including accuracy & quality, multilingual support, large document analysis, document creation, and advanced research. It showed substantial improvements in analyzing large documents, achieving a 69.9% win rate. The system also delivered "exceptional performance" in advanced web research and source discovery with a 78.2% win rate. The AI research tool now generates outputs in more formats. You can give instructions to guide the outputs and download the generated files from the studio panel. Here are the newly supported formats: PNG and SVG for data visualizations and charts PDFs, docx, markdown, and text files for documents PNG, JPG, and GIF for images JSON and CSV for structured data XLSX for Microsoft Excel PPTX for Microsoft PowerPoint You can make edits after the outputs are generated. The feature is available globally; therefore, you can provide directions in one language and create outputs in another. Google said that it's also making it easier to get started with a project in NotebookLM. Instead of having a list of sources beforehand, you can even start with loose ideas, and NotebookLM can help build the repository of sources through the chat. For instance, you can find primary sources in other languages to get new perspectives or explore related works of an author. All of these new features are rolling out globally for those who can loosen up their pockets. They are available to users with Google AI Ultra and all Workspace business customers with AI Ultra access. Google has plans to expand them to more users in the future.
    • "...will no longer be bundled with the monthly Windows security updates or Patch Tuesdays. Instead the company is shifting delivery of these updates to Microsoft Update...". Three names that all refer to Windows Update. Does the author even understand what he is writing about?
    • and somehow windows is the only one with issue every patch tuesday is a mess, android macosx have all that and it never had issues locking people out of their own data.
    • It's the ol': I told my kids I was older than Google and they thought I was joking. For me I was born the same year as the internet
