Netopia 4752 in this type of environment, refer to the following sections for specific information you must

The Netopia 4752 SDSL Integrated Access Device provides its high speed symmetric (two-way) digital
connection to the Internet through a Local Exchange Carrier (LEC) -- a type of mini phone company. The CLEC
uses a compatible type of switching equipment known as a Digital Subscriber Line Access Multiplexer (DSLAM).
The DSLAM that you connect to with your Netopia Router must be capable of handling these symmetric
connections. The Netopia 4752 is cer tified for use with DSLAMs manufactured by Nokia , Lucent, Paradyne,
Nor tel networks, and Copper Mountain.
If you have purchased your Netopia Router through a Netopia ISP par tner, you can be sure that an account that
suppor ts SDSL connections will be available.
If your area has more than one ISP, the following considerations will help you decide which ISP is best suited for
your requirements.
In determining which Internet ser vice provider (ISP) to establish your account with, make sure that your ISP
suppor ts connections via a CLEC that also suppor ts voice ser vices.
Use an ISP that provides Internet access through a Symmetric Digital Subscriber Line (SDSL) and that suppor ts
the Netopia 4752 SDSL Integrated Access Device. If you would like to use an ISP that you already have a
relationship with but that is not familiar with the Netopia 4752, call us at 1-800-NETOPIA. Our representative
can call your ISP and introduce them to the product. If necessar y, we will provide them with the technical
background they need to suppor t the product.
