Provide DNS Server Address Information
If your Wireless Broadband Router acts as a DHCP Server and assigns IP address information to other
PCs on your LAN, then you may need to configure DNS Server IP addresses in the router that are
transferred to these DHCP clients. Note that these addresses are often configured automatically. Your
ISP will tell you whether you need to configure these addresses.
The Domain Name System (DNS) is the technique that is used on the Internet to translate names like
“www.ebay.com” to IP addresses like 209.103.14.2. In order to do this, a query is made to special DNS
servers in the Internet that provide this information. Often, the addresses of these machines are sent to
the router automatically when it logs into the ISP. However, there may be instances where this is not
done, or where special addresses are required.
If your ISP requires you to manually enter DNS Server addresses, you can enter these addresses on this
page. Up to two DNS server IP addresses may be entered.
