Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe under "gateway/router",
you should have the IP of your eMac, as it will be the "gateway"
machine for your Newt. Under "primary DNS/name server", you should use
a DNS that your ISP provides. Look on your eMac for that info. As for
domain name, just use the same as your ISP on your eMac, such as
"apple.com".
I just looked on my Newt and checked what I used on it, and that's what
works for me.
