into Internet addresses or URLs. Your ISP will provide you with at least one DNS Server IP Address. You
can enter up to three DNS Server IP Addresses here. The Gateway will use these for quicker access to
functioning DNS servers.

WINS server, enter that server’s IP address here. Otherwise, leave this field blank.
•
Time Setting. Select the appropriate time zone. You can change the interval between Network Time Protocol
