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 Ser ver 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 
.
1.
Select Ethernet IP Address and enter the first IP address from the IP address range your ISP has given 
you. This will be the Netopia Router’s IP address.
The Ethernet IP Address defaults to an address (192.168.1.1) within a range reser ved 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 
 of this guide for more information.
2.
Select Ethernet Subnet Mask and enter the subnet mask your ISP has given you. 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.
Type the Domain Name your ISP gave you. Press Return. The next field Primary Domain Name Server will 
be highlighted.
