    and where should i set the DNS Servers??i can't find it,

    On the 504... Log into the 504 web interface and ...

    [1] Proxy DNS (this is optional)
    Select Configuration -> Proxy DNS

    Proxy DNS [Enabled]
    Get DNS IP Automatically (I've this checked but you probably don't need to do this if you're setting the DNS server IP, I'm not sure).
    DNS Server IP 212.17.32.3

    [2] If you are using DHCP (again optional)
    Select Configuration -> DHCP Configuration on LAN

    You can probably go with the default values - I can't actually remember what they are, but I'm not going to try and find out :D. Anyway, in the Primary DNS (if you are using the Proxy DNS) you can set the first DNS setting to point to the router***. Optionally you can set the second to 212.17.32.1. If you are not using Proxy DNS, set both to the 212 numbers.

    [3] Not using DHCP.
    You can manually set the DNS server IPs in what OS you are using to the 2 DNS server addresses given, or better, setup Proxy DNS (see [1]) and just set a DNS entry to the router in the OS.

    do i need to set up a dial ??like 56k?
    No. But your default gateway on you machine(s) must point to the 504's IP address.

    *** The default 504 IP is 192.168.0.1.

    D.
