Enter an IP address in decimal and dot form (xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx).
Set up the basic IP & IPX attributes of your Netopia in this screen.
1.Select Ethernet IP Address and enter the first IP address from the IP address range your ISP has given you. This will be the Netopia Router’s IP address.
If Network Address Translation is enabled in Easy Setup, the Ethernet IP Address defaults to an address within a range reserved by the Internet address administration authority for use within private networks, 192.168.1.1.
Because this is a private network address, it should never be directly connected to the Internet. Using NAT for all your WAN and IP configurations will ensure this restriction. See “IP Setup and Network Address Translation” on page
2.Select Ethernet Subnet Mask and enter the subnet mask your ISP has given you. The Ethernet Subnet Mask defaults to a standard class mask derived from the class of the Ethernet IP address you entered in the previous step.
3.Select Domain Name and enter the domain name your ISP has given you.
