DNS Server
Configuration
DNS stands for Domain Name System. Every Internet host must

easy to remember name such as www.yahoo.com. The DNS
server converts the user-friendly name into its equivalent IP
address

Access server (PPPoE, PPTP, L2TP or DHCP server).
Primary IP Address -
You must specify a DNS server IP address

You can specify secondary DNS server
IP address here because your ISP often provides you more than
one DNS Server. If your ISP does not provide it, the router will
