Do I have a problem with my DNS ? I can connect to the router/wiredAP, and I can connect to the AP wireless(SameThing). I can ping 66.102.7.147 Google, on wired and wireless . The problem is I cant connect to the internet... I am using the same settings as my 802.11b router but my GSRouter I cant get Internet. I turned off fire wall, security blablabla just to connect but I cant get internet.....AP connection is fine on wired and wireless. I know it must be a Pebkac situation.

can someone offer me some suggestions please.

Thanks

if you can ping websites, but not visit them via their dns then yes its a dns problem. do you use a static ip or dhcp?

hmm well i wouldn't understand why you aren't getting a dns then. try upgrading the firmware on the wrt54gs or try a reset.

try an nslookup from your prompt of choice (dos or *nix)

if your DNS is resolving, you'll get something like

Default Server:<<some DNS for your ISP>>
Address:<<IP to that DNS>>

then you can type
set q=any
www.yahoo.com

see if it resolves... hope it helps.
