real analysis - Differentiability of f(x+y)=f(x)f(y)

Let f: R R be a function such that f(x+y) = f(x)f(y) for all x,y R. Suppose that f(0) exists. Prove that f is a differentiable function.




This is what I've tried:
Using the definition of differentiability and taking arbitrary x0 R.



limh0 f(x0+h)f(x0)h = = f(x0)limh0 f(h)1h.



Then since x0 arbitrary, using f(x0+0)=f(x0)=f(x0)f(0) for y=0, can I finish the proof?
