Entering DNS numbers and IP addresses
The Internet uses the Domain Naming System (DNS) to translate the names of host
computers into IP addresses. A DNS number (or IP address) identifies a specific server
that handles the translation services.
Each DNS or IP address is a series of four numbers, from 0 to 255, separated by periods.
Anyone who logs onto the Internet must have a unique identifier—an IP address. This
IP address can be either temporary—assigned automatically each time you log on—or
permanent.
Not all systems require that you enter a DNS number; check whether it is with your
system administrator. If a DNS number is required but not entered, logging on to your
network may appear successful. However, the connection will fail if you try to use an
application or look up information.
If your system requires DNS numbers, ask your Internet Service Provider or system
administrator what they are.
To specify a primary and secondary DNS number:
1 In the Network Preferences screen with a service template selected, tap Details.

Never Your Acer s10 will keep the connection until you turn off the device
(or until it times out).
