Application software: This is the software you use to send e-mail, browse the World Wide Web, read newsgroups, etc. These applications may require some conﬁguration. Examples include the Eudora e-mail client and the Web browsers Microsoft Internet Explorer and Netscape Navigator.

TCP/IP stack: This is the software that lets your PC or Macintosh communicate using Internet protocols. TCP/IP stacks must be conﬁgured with some of the same information you used to conﬁgure the Netopia R910. There are a number of TCP/IP stacks available for PC computers. Windows 95 includes a built-in TCP/IP stack. See “Conﬁguring TCP/IP on Windows 95 or 98” on page 5-24. Macintosh computers use either MacTCP or Open Transport. See “Conﬁguring TCP/IP on a Macintosh Computer” on page 5-26.

Ethernet: Ethernet hardware and software drivers enable your PC or Macintosh computer to communicate on the LAN.

EtherTalk: This is an AppleTalk protocol used over Ethernet.

Once the Netopia R910 is properly conﬁgured and connected to your LAN, PC and Macintosh computers that have their required components in place will be able to connect to the Internet or other remote IP networks.

It is difﬁcult to specify the address that will be served to a particular client in all circumstances. However, when the address server has been conﬁgured, and the clients involved have no prior address serving interactions, the Netopia R910 will generally serve the ﬁrst unused address from the ﬁrst address pool with an available address.
