Obtaining information from the ISP | Netopia R5000 guide

Setting Up Internet Services 2-3

Obtaining information from the ISP

After your account is set up, the ISP should send you the IP parameter information that will help you conﬁgure the Netopia R5000 Series.

Local LAN IP address information to obtain

Your ISP will need to provide you with the following information:

■The default gateway IP address (same as remote IP address in most cases)

■Local WAN IP address and subnet mask

■Primary and secondary domain name server (DNS) IP addresses

■Domain name (usually the same as the ISP’s domain name unless you have registered for your own individual domain name)

Note: The default gateway, WAN address and mask, DNS, and domain name are all obtainable via WAN DHCP, if your ISP supports it.

With Network Address Translation

If you are using Network Address Translation you should obtain the following:

■If you are connecting to a remote site using Network Address Translation on your router, your provider will not deﬁne the IP address information on your local LAN. You can deﬁne this information based on an IP conﬁguration that may already be in place for the existing network. Alternatively, you can use the default IP address range used by the router, 192.168.1.x.

Without Network Address Translation

If you are not using Network Address Translation, you will need to obtain all of the local LAN IP address information from your ISP.

If you are not using Network Address Translation you should obtain:

■The number of Ethernet IP host addresses available with your account and the ﬁrst usable IP host address in the address block

■The Ethernet IP address for your Netopia R5000 Series

■The Ethernet IP subnet mask address for your Netopia R5000 Series
