the 192.168.x.x range is the private Class C network range. Yes, most
devices you buy will have their default IP setup in that range.
I'm satisfied that the Router Address and Name Server Address
(192.168.1.1) is incorrect -- that means the router is also the name
server...
No, this could very well be correct. Many DHCP servers can (and do)
act as DNS forwarders. So what the DHCP server is basically saying is
"Ask me for your DNS queries, and I'll take care of asking whatever
my assigned DNS servers are and then pass the info on to you".
This is fairly typical as it lets you assign the DNS servers just
once and all DHCP clients can get the info from the DHCP server. (the
DHCP protocol also allows for specific DNS servers to be passed to
the client, but I'm not sure I've ever seen inexpensive hardware that
supports that).
That doesn't mean that the info IS correct, just that it isn't
automatically incorrect.
