Setting Custom Domain Name Server (DNS) Settings
A “Domain Name Server” is a server located on the Internet that translates
Universal Resource Locaters (URLs) like “www.belkin.com” to IP addresses.
Many Internet Service Providers (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” to save the
settings.
