can try setting it up and see if things work :)

Your IP address is between you and your ISP (and whatever other routers and networking hardware you have at your site).   Multinet has to be configured to play correctly with all of that, but that's all up to you.

Have you tested your Multinet installation to be sure it's working ?   I.e. can you ping google.com?

And have you configured your DECnet already?   What did you use for a node name and address?

I have tested Multinet and can ping google. According to my roommate,
our IP hasn't changed in months; it may change when we move in a
couple weeks but it'll probably stay the same afterward.

I have not set up DECnet yet, since I figured there would be some
coordination necessary. My node name is/will be LOKI (that's already
the machine name) but I don't have an address yet.
