Will I still be able to download Signatures? Or will I need a new DNS server? If I do need a new DNS server is their one that I can trust. I could install it on my Linux box unfortunately my partner won't understand/cope with having to ensure that the Linux machine is running before accessing the internet and or printing.

Installing your own caching DNS server is easy but the best place to put it is in a server that is always on. On the other hand, the Alcatel router is getting the DNS info from your provider, you probably can configure it to just pass that DNS server address along.


If the Alcatel is your DHCP server that's the place to do the change, just change the DNS server address it provides.

In case you decide to install your own, you can try http://www.isc.org/index.pl?/bind; I'm using version 9.3.0, you can find binaries for just about any flavor of Linux and other OSes.
