which the connected client computers are instructed to request a
new IP address from the router.
DNS Proxy: When activated, the router acts as a DNS server in your
network, which means that the computer sends the DNS request to
the router, which in turn queries the ISP’s DNS server. Since the
router is caching the results, subsequent requests to the same
domain name benet from a performance gain. NOTE: These gains
are negible in smaller networks, so leaving this option disabled —
thus having the client doing the DNS look-up itself — is more often
than not the best option.
