This chapter describes how to use the Easy Setup console screens on your Netopia R310 ISDN Router. The

Easy Setup console screens provide an alternate method for experienced users to set up their router’s

Connection Proﬁles without using SmartStart. After completing the Easy Setup console screens, your router will

be ready to connect to the Internet or another remote site.

This chapter covers the following topics:

■“Easy Setup console screens” on page 6-1

■“Beginning Easy Setup” on page 6-3

Easy Setup console screens

Using four Easy Setup console screens, you can:

■set up your switch type and datalink parameters

■create or modify a Connection Proﬁle for your Router for the connection to your ISP or remote location

■set up IP addresses and IP address serving

■password protect conﬁguration access to your Netopia R310 ISDN Router

How to access the Easy Setup console screens

To access the console screens, Telnet to the Netopia Router over your Ethernet network, or you can physically

connect with a serial console cable and access the Netopia Router with a terminal emulation program. See

“Connecting through a Telnet session” on page 5-2 or “Connecting a local terminal console cable to your

router” on page 5-3.

Note: Before continuing, make sure that you have the information that your telephone service provider, ISP, or

network administrator has given you to conﬁgure the Netopia Router.

The Netopia Router’s ﬁrst console screen, Main Menu, appears in the terminal emulation window of the

attached PC or Macintosh when:

■the Netopia Router is turned on

■the computer is connected to the Netopia Router

■the Telnet or terminal emulation software is running and conﬁgured correctly.
