You can add a DNS server to the dial-up account. To add a DNS server, specify a domain name for your computer and the DNS IP address of the DNS server assigned to you by your ISP or system administrator. You can add multiple DNS servers; you must have at least one DNS server in the DNS address list. You can also remove DNS servers from the dial-up account list. You can disable existing DNS servers when you connect to computers within the local network that might not need domain name translation.
