[SLUG] RE: DSL setup

This is a really dumb question but - do I have to use DNS to use my DSL.
 I have been connecting but occasionally it will just go down and I have
to reconfigure everything in Linuxconfig and reboot to get it back. I'm
using Mandrake 9.0 with Verizon DSL. This is all new to me so be
patient. I tried RoaringPenguin's PPPOE but it doesn't work and
Linuxconfig keeps giving me an error message for it. But the directions
for RP PPPOE mentions setting up DNS and I was under the impression that
I only needed it if I was set up as a server, which I'm not. I am a
little confused on the server issue as you can tell. Your help is
greatly appreciated. Maureen
