Wait.. I liked Mr Geek Squad's details (BTW: do Best Buys still give out beetles for those GS's? 
) , but if I read it correctly, livetorock's trying to daisy chain a wifi-capable router to set up an access point (possibly because the ISP provided box didn't have wifi support).
Pointing default gateway's IP address for DHCP and DNS should work just fine.
While all of that is automatically detected and configured - in a typical setup, I'd enter the IP address of the Wifi router's interface that's connected to the TP Link box, if I had to manually do it.
What that does is, resolves internal host names to the corresponding IP addresses when you try hitting systems within your network, and forwards out name resolution requests for recursive lookup when you want to reach an outside host.
I'll be happy to elaborate more, if needed!
