DNS domain name on Wireless Network

I am trying to get my network card setup on my laptop, but I am having problems figuring out the DNS server name. I use a wireless access point to connect (by ethernet cable) to a free access point. The problem is it either changes based on which place I am at, or even Windows can't tell me what it is. Is there any way to use DHCP so I wouldn't have to change my settings everywhere I go?

I am using a Linksys WAP54G Access Point to act as my wireless network card for now. I did have to set it up using Internet Explorer in Windows. But it looks like it works using Mozilla on the Solaris 10 OS.
