e.g., 192.168.0.2
Subnet Mask:
255.255.255.0
Default Gateway:
Enter the LAN IP address of the Wireless Router.
Select Use the following DNS server addresses.
Enter the LAN IP address of the Wireless Router.
192 168 0 1

The DNS server information will be supplied by your ISP (Internet Service Provider.)
