netmask 255.255.255.0

gateway 192.168.0.253 (only required for Internet access)

The file /etc/resolv.conf must be edited to ensure that the name resolution
(DNS) is executed correctly. Enter the IP address for the DNS server into this file,
e.g. nameserver 192.168.0.253 (only for Internet access)

Make sure that the IP address is the same as that for the dsl

+

1100 duo. In most

cases the network router is the DNS server.

Please note that operating multiple network interfaces can potentially cause
problems with DNS and routing. We recommend the use of DHCP for the assign-
ment of IP addresses so that the DNS and gateway are adapted automatically.
