This screen allows you to change the Netopia D-Series’s Ethernet IP Address, Subnet Mask, and Default IP Gateway.

 

IP Setup

Ethernet IP Address:

192.168.1.1

Ethernet Subnet Mask:

255.255.255.0

Default IP Gateway:

0.0.0.0

Enter an IP address in decimal and dot form (xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx).

Set up the basic IP attributes of your Netopia in this screen.

Follow these steps to configure IP Setup for your Netopia D-Series:

Select Ethernet IP Address and enter the IP address for the Netopia D-Series’s Ethernet port.

Select Ethernet Subnet Mask and enter the subnet mask for the Ethernet IP address that you entered in the last step.

Select Default IP Gateway and enter the IP address for a default gateway. This can be the address of any major router accessible to the Netopia D-Series.

A default gateway should be able to successfully route packets when the Netopia D-Series cannot recognize the intended recipient’s IP address. A typical example of a default gateway is the ISP’s router, in bridge mode, or the locally attached router, in DSU mode.
