3. IP Easy Setup
The IP Easy Setup screen is where you enter information about your Netopia Router’s:
• Ethernet IP address
• Ethernet Subnet mask
• Domain Name
• Domain Name Server IP address
• Default gateway IP address
Consult with your network administrator to obtain the information you will need. For more information about
setting up IP, see the Firmware User’s Guide chapter on “IP Setup”.
1. Select Ethernet IP Address and enter the first IP address from the IP address range your ISP has given you
only if you are not using Network Address Translation (NAT). This will be the Netopia Router’s IP address.
The Ethernet IP Address defaults to an address (192.168.1.1) within a range reserved by the Internet
address administration authority for use within private networks.
Because this is a private network address, it should never be directly connected to the Internet. Using NAT
for all your connection profiles will ensure this restriction. See the Firmware User’s Guide chapter on
“Multiple Network Address Translation (MultiNAT)” for more information.
2. Select Ethernet Subnet Mask and enter the subnet mask your ISP has given you only if you are not using
NAT. 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. Press the Down arrow key until the editable field labeled Domain Name is highlighted.
4. If you have a static IP Address, type the Domain Name your ISP gave you. Press Return. The next field
Primary Domain Name Server will be highlighted. If you are using DHCP or PPPoE, leave this field blank and
skip Step 5.
