I've got a no-name ethernet ADSL modem router(USB+Ethernet, single port). I've followed all the modem's installation instructions as well as Telecom's. It was set up as default for telecom. Now, my problem is where to enter Telecom's DNS Servers numbers. Is it Control Panel/Network Connections/Internet Protocol, (TCP/IP)/Properties/General/Obtain DNS Server Automatically or use the following address with Primary and Secondary addresses?	Fishb8 (484)

247812	2004-06-27 01:36:00	Insert them in: "TCP/IP)/Properties/General/Use the following DNS server addresses", as primary and secondary addresses. Cheers Billy 8-{)	Billy T (70)
