The whole point of having the router and DHCP is to avoid manual configuration. Unfortunately most routers support either 2 or at most 3 DNS server entries. If the DNS servers are correctly set in the router then theres no problem in logging in. -- Regards, Dinesh A. Joshi -- http://mm.glug-bom.org/mailman/listinfo/linuxers
