Local LAN IP address information to obtain
Your ISP will need to provide you with the following information:
■ The default gateway IP address
■ Remote IP address
■ Local WAN IP address and subnet mask
■ Primar y and secondar y domain name ser ver (DNS) IP addresses
■ Domain name (usually the same as the ISP’s domain name unless you have registered for your own
individual domain name)
Refer to the section “Quick Easy Setup connection path” on page 7-3 for a handy worksheet.
Note: The default gateway, WAN address and mask, DNS, and domain name are all obtainable via WAN DHCP,
if your ISP suppor ts it.
With Network Address Translation
If you are using Smar tIP (NAT), 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, where 192.168.1.1 is the default IP address of the router.
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 and you will need to pay for an IP address for each device on the network.
If you are not using Smar tIP (NAT), you should obtain:
■ The Ethernet IP address for your Netopia R9100
■ The Ethernet IP subnet mask for your Netopia R9100
■ An IP address for each device on your network, in the same network range as the Netopia R9100.
