I have been using Dlan setup (through the Electricity circuit) sucessfuly for 9 months - Cable modem downstairs going into the Dlan socket nearby with a Dlan socket upstairs going into the PC via USB - all perfectly running almost out of the box! I have recently aquired a laptop with a Wireless card - and added a Dlan wireless unit to the setup. After installation of the software - the connection to the Dlan Wireless is detected by the Laptop - but i get "unable to resolve ip address and no connectivity" - i decided to input the Dlan ip manualy - so i entered the IP and Subnet but was very unsure about the DNS gateway. It now connects and has an excellent signal but i cant browse any webpages atall.
My Question is what DNS details do i provide and will this rectify the issue.
I Would be very greatful for any ideas.

P.S - Be aware im not very tech savvy!!!
