ALTERNATE SETUP METHOD

Setting Custom Domain Name Server (DNS) Settings

A “Domain Name Server” is a server located on the Internet that

translates Universal Resource Locators (URLs) like “www�belkin�com”

into IP addresses� Many Internet Service Providers (ISPs) do not require

you to enter this information into the Router� The “Automatic from ISP”

(1)

box 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”
