DNS (Domain Name Server) Settings
A “Domain Name Server” is a server located on the Internet that translates
Universal Resource Links (URLs) like “www.belkin.com” to IP addresses. Many
ISPs do not require you to enter this information into the Router. The “Automatic
from ISP” box (1) should be checked if your ISP did not give you a specific DNS
address. If you are using a static IP connection type, then you may need to enter
a specific DNS address and secondary DNS address for your connection to work
properly. If your connection type is dynamic or PPPoE, it is likely that you do not
have to enter a DNS address. Leave the “Automatic from ISP” box checked. To
enter the DNS address settings, uncheck the “Automatic from ISP” box and enter
your DNS entries in the spaces provided. Click “Apply Changes” (2) to save the
settings.
