How to use this guide

This guide is designed to be your single source for information about your Netopia R6000 Series ADSL Router.
It is intended to be viewed on-line, using the powerful features of the Adobe Acrobat Reader. The information
display has been deliberately designed to present the maximum information in the minimum space on your
screen. You can keep this document open while you perform any of the procedures described and find useful
information about the procedure you are performing.
If you prefer to work from hard copy rather than on-line documentation, you can also print out all of the manual,
or individual sections. The pages are formatted to print on standard 8 1/2 by 11 inch paper. We recommend
that you print on three-hole punched paper, so you can put the pages in a binder for future reference. For your
convenience, a printed copy can be purchased from Netopia. Order part number TER6100/Doc.
This guide is organized into chapters describing the Netopia R6000 Series's advanced features. You may want
to read each chapter's introductory section to familiarize yourself with the various features available.
