3. Configure 255.255.255.255 as the IP address of the DNS server.
   
   
4. Configure the domain name to be a period (.).
   
   
5. After you have configured the router, set the default gateway to the router's IP address.
   

If you change any of these parameters from previous settings, you must restart the Macintosh.
