I would go to a forum that specializes in it. Is the router set up for DHCP or does it assign a static IP?

If a static IP has been assigned then you probably only need to enter the subnet mask and the default gateway for the server as well as the IP's for the DNS gateways if they are not auto-assigned.

Again, I recommend going to a forum like anandtech.com or webhostingtalk.com and ask some questions there. They might even point you to an even better forum to ask those kinds of server configuration and DNS questions.
