No, it's the network adaptor setting for your computer.

Windows 10, right click on what would have been the start button and choose (6 down from top for me) Network Connections
Then you can see your network connection, eg Network 2
Right click on that then click on properties at the bottom of the menu box
Double click on Internet Protocol Version 4 and it will bring up a box
click on button "use the following IP address"
fill in the boxes:
choose your network address eg 192.168.0.40
if you click in the next box down it should auto fill with 255.255.255.0
type in your Routers IP - often 192.168.0.1 as the gateway it's what you'd type to access it from your computer

Then click on "Use the following DNS server address" and type (this is the address of open DNS)
208.67.222.222 in the first box and
208.67.220.220 in the second box

Should end up being similar to this http://www.home-network-help.com/images/...set-ip.jpg

To undo it all just click on "obtain an address automatically" and all your typed in settings will vanish.

This might explain it better than I can http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/19249/how...windows-7/

Thanks for trying to help

I had no internet access after altering those numbers , "DHCP not enabled" windows said :-\

I think it's better doing it in your router configuration. If you know how to enter inside, you can set a pre-defined ip address for your MAC address and also change your DNS addresses (some people use google dnss). I always keep my provider DNSs, but you can change them just for a test online and then bring them back to normal.

About setting a pre-defined ip address inside your local network, for me that's a must as I have a lot of devices inside the same LAN.
