STOP!

The next section of this installation guide, “Configuring Microsoft Windows,”

is intended for users with single, stand-alone PCs that are being connected

together in order to share the new DSL service.

If you are using a LAN and understand the impacts of changing Windows

TCP/IP settings, please proceed with the instructions in Section 6.

McLeodUSA and Netopia are available to answer questions you may have.

Please see Section 10: Contact Information.

Additional resources for users with advanced needs:

You are considered a customer with advanced needs if any of the

following apply to you/your network configuration:

• You require certain workstations on your network to have public

Internet static IP addresses.

• You require servers on your network to have public Internet

static IP addresses.

• Your network workstations are currently configured with private

static IP addresses, and you cannot change them to dynamic

(DHCP) without interrupting existing applications or connectivity

to LAN servers.

• You need to customize firewall filter sets.

• You need to customize gateway defaults. The default settings for

the DSL gateway have the following features enabled:

• DHCP IP Address-Serving to your LAN.

• DHCP Client to the McLeodUSA network is enabled. This will

change if you need to use public static IP addresses within

your LAN.

• Network Address Translation is enabled.
