How can I determine where my D7000 is getting DNS?

I'm having DNS problems with my router. My computer was configured to use the router as the DNS server, so I presume that the router wasn't able to connect properly to an outside server. Under Advanced > Setup > Internet Setup > Domain Name Server (DNS) Address, I have selected Get Automatically from ISP (the default).

 

 

Is there a way to determine what IP address the router received from the ISP? I want to confirm that it's legitimate and working.

OK, I stumbled on it. Posting here for other people to find.

 

Go to Advanced > Advanced Home. It's in the "Internet Port" box.

 

It's also been auto-filled in the boxes for manual configuration in the Advanced > Internet Setup page.

Oh, and is there a way to test DNS via the router?

 

I'm currently able to connect to the internet by having my computer use a different DNS server than the router.

 

I'm running Mac OS X, if it makes a difference.
