A \define{gateway} \dash This is the \acronym{IP} address of the device that your machine looks to for access to the Internet. Usually, this will be the router's \acronym{IP} address. \marginnote{\advanced{If you do not know your \acronym{ISP}'s \acronym{DNS} server addresses, Google has \acronym{DNS} servers that anyone in the world can use for free. The addresses of these servers are: Primary\dash 8.8.8.8 Secondary\dash 8.8.4.4}}

\define{\acronym{DNS} server} \dash This is the \acronym{IP} address of the \acronym{DNS} \emph{(Domain Name Service)} server. \acronym{DNS} is what your computer uses to resolve \acronym{IP} addresses to domain names. For example \url{http://www.ubuntu.com} resolves to 91.189.94.156. This is the \acronym{IP} address of the Ubuntu website on the Internet. \acronym{DNS} is used so you don't have to remember \acronym{IP} addresses. Domain names (like \url{ubuntu.com}) are much easier to remember. You will need at least one \acronym{DNS} server address but you can enter up to three addresses in case one server is unavailable.

If you are adding a connection, you need to provide a name for the connection. This will distinguish the connection being added from any other connections added in future. In the ``Connection Name'' field, choose a name such as ``Wired Home.''
