no it wont affect any other boxes

you will have to change from auto IP address to manual ip address , then add the primary and secondary google servers into the appropriate boxes in the menu, the current ip address for the box can be used anyway, the subnet mask is the same , the router main ip address also remains the same

so similar to this spiderbox 6000 thread

needs to be similar to the link I showed you earlier , subject to your own router details (they do vary)

if you need further help, attach a pic of your screen showing all those details whilst its got DHCP set to ON (so before you start messing with it)
