No, 255.255.255.0 is the subnet mask. To see all your IP settings, run a command prompt by clicking "start" then "run", type in cmd and press enter.

In the prompt, type ipconfig /all and press return. You will get a long list of settings - look for the DNS server(s), note the number and then in the prompt type ping followed by the DNS server address and hit return. You should get 4 lines with a reply. If you do then ignore the DNS issue as this would equate to a working DNS setup.
