DNS Server Address
This configuration box determines what DNS server address your router delivers to the PCs by
DHCP when the PCs are rebooted.
A DNS server is a host on the Internet that translates Internet names to numeric IP addresses.
When you enter an Internet name (such as www.NETGEARinc.com) in your browser, your PC
must translate this name to an IP address. Your PC contacts a DNS server for this translation. This
process is analogous to calling directory assistance to obtain a phone number for a business name.
