Your ISP may offer various Internet access account plans. Typically, these plans vary by usage charges and the
number of host IP addresses supplied. Evaluate your networking needs and discuss them with your ISP before
deciding on a plan for your network.

Check whether your ISP has the Netopia R5000 Series on its list of supported products that have been tested
with a particular configuration. If the ISP does not have the Netopia R5000 Series on such a list, describe the
Netopia R5000 Series in as much detail as needed, so your ISP account can be optimized. As appropriate, refer
your ISP to Netopia’s Web site, http://www.netopia.com, for more information.

Typically, each network computer that requires Internet access requires its own unique IP address. If some or
all network computers require simultaneous Internet access, obtain a block of IP host addresses large enough
for each computer to have its own address, plus one for the Netopia R5000 Series.
Consider expected growth in your network when deciding on the number of addresses to obtain. Alternatively,
you can use the Network Address Translation feature such that you require just one address from your service
provider.
