It sounds like you need to Port Forward your modem/router.....I can only find the speedstream 6520 instructions so when you log into your modem and it looks different to what is shown in the instructions let me know...

Also when you log in try using 10.0.0.138, that's Telstra's log in number...

Try uninstalling java1.6.0_01 from your add/remove programs and then download and install the JRE 5.11 using the offline installer...
(4th one down)....
Java SE Downloads - Previous Release - JDK 5

Smile Connection Issue and XP

If you're using a router, go to Tool / Options / Advanced / Network Interface. From here, enable "Use specific network interface" and then click router you are using below...

This resolved my issue...
