Ok so I’m an absolute novice at this stuff, but basically DNS tells your computer where on the Internet a particular website is located. Its IP address. Your router will likely default to the DNS server your ISP provides. My router, and I would guess most others, allows one to change which DNS server their computer uses. There is a list of DNS servers one can use, and among them is OpenDNS, owned by Cisco. Provided the Jem’Hadar don’t attack, I should be good.

I’m reaching the end of my knowledge here, hope that summary helped
