Description

The setup wizard should give the same warning about using the .local domain as the System > General configuration text does.

Do not end the domain name with '.local' as the final part (Top Level Domain, TLD), The 'local' TLD is widely used by mDNS (e.g. Avahi, Bonjour, Rendezvous, Airprint, Airplay) and some Windows systems and networked devices. These will not network correctly if the router uses 'local' as its TLD. Alternative TLDs such as 'local.lan' or 'mylocal' are safe.

Also probably a good time to s/TLD),/TLD)./
