DNS resolve fails
« on: November 01, 2010, 03:14:13 PM »
I think I am trying to use this router in a way it wasn't designed to do.

The issue I am trying to track down is, when I go to Tools, System check and enter www.google.com, it is unable to resolve the name to IP. The wireless clients can, but the router cannot.

Now, I have the router setup behind a firewall, it is not setup to hand out IP addresses (DHCP), and I have a separate DNS server. I have setup the router as 'My internet connection is: Dynamic (DHCP). I setup the Primary, and Secondary DNS servers as my internal DNS server.

Should I worry about DIR-628 not being able to resolve DNS names to IP?

It seems that your DNS servers are not able to view the outside of your network.  Port 53 somehow need to resolve correctly to the "root DNS" servers.
