Did Globe Just Give You a Siemens Gigaset 260?
This afternoon, I had a visit from a couple of chaps from Globe who told me that my old Prolink 9200 modem is at the end of its life and needs to be replaced. I think I scared them both off as they let me do all the wiring myself. Good thing that they gave me a filter and an extra phone cable to hook everything up.
Now the big problem is that I use a Linksys WRT54G router for its QoS and wireless capabilities. On the Prolink, I was able to enable bridging mode. But if you try the default username and password user/user on the Siemens modem, you’ll get neutered options.
A quick trip to PinoyDSL.net gave me the answers to my problems and here they are courtesy of user luolan from Malibay, Pasay City.

Just make sure to set your router to a different IP. For example on my Linksys, I set it to 192.168.1.100. You have to hook up your PC directly to the Siemens modem to configure it. Just use the Admin credentials.
Once you’re logged in, your first order of business is to change the password to something you can easily remember. I personally used Admin to make it idiot friendly.
Anyway, the settings you need are VPI 0 and VCI 35. Then set the connection mode from PPPoE to 1483 Bridged. Leave the LLC setting and don’t choose VC-Mux. You can just modify the original profile listed and then save changes. Also, make sure to go to LAN settings then disable DHCP. Afterwards Save and Reboot changes.
Then just go back to your router and make sure that PPPoE is enabled. The username will be your e-mail address with globe which is most likely
yourname@globelines.com.ph. The password by default is your account number which can be seen on your latest bill.
If you need more help on this, hit me back or try the PinoyDSL forums. Don’t try calling Globe Technical Support. They’ll just tell you that only their on-site technicians are allowed to do so. They just probably don’t know the settings themselves. The two on-site guys who came here surely didn’t.
