Need some help turning off UPC search page

    I'm sure some people have noticed a change with UPC in the last few weeks, where if you type a website name into the address bar in Firefox or Safari without a .com or .ie, it will bring up a crappy search page. Something to do with DNS I believe, but am not technical enough to understand!

    I am trying to turn this page off using UPC's instructions here:

    http://service.upc.ie/pdf/DNS%20opt-out%20instructions.pdf

    However, the instructions for Mac only refer to a wired connection.
    Could someone let me know how I can turn it off using a wireless connection?

    Click on the Airport connection, press Advanced and then click into the DNS tab.

    Thanks for that.
    Sorry for sounding thick, but after I do that, I click the + under DNS Servers, and add it there, right?
