Which place do I set up DNS servers?

1

On my computer or on the router? Or both? I know how set them on each, I just need to know which one, or if I really need to bother.

Its easier to change it in the router, then you do not have to change it on each PC, less work. – Moab – 2011-09-06T14:09:56.213

Well, it depends.

You should be using your ISP DNS servers, and that's automatically set if you use a dynamic ip address. If you can't or don't want to use them for some reason I'd set it on the router as then DNS server settings are network wide, but setting them per computer will overrule that. I'd then set them on any system you didn't want the DNS settings on the router to be in effect for
