Enable DNS relay on your router

Network > LAN Setting
DNS (Domain Name System) is protocol used for resolving IP addresses to domain
names such as www.trendnet.com. In order for computers to be able to access domain
names, your computer requires a DNS server or directory IP addresses to domain
names. Your router can be used as a DNS relay server to an actual DNS server available
on the Internet. This can improve the speed in which your computer is able to resolve
these domain names by acting as a relay instead of your computer having to
communicate directly with an Internet DNS server. Your router uses the WAN DNS
servers issues or assigned by your ISP as the outside DNS server. It is recommended to
leave this setting enabled.
1. Log into your router management page (see
on page 25).
2. Click on Main, and click on LAN.
3. Next to Enable DNS Relay, check the option to enable or uncheck to disable.
4. To save changes, click Save Settings.

Set up the DHCP server on your router

Main > LAN
Your router can be used as a DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) server to
automatically assign an IP address to each computer or device on your network. The
DHCP server is enabled by default on your router. If you already have a DHCP server on
your network, or if you do not want to use your router as a DHCP server, you can disable
this setting. It is recommended to leave this setting enabled.
