Any Cisco experts around?

I'm stumped and would pull my hair out if I hadn't already.  The problem is this.  I have an 877W and it's connected to the internet perfectly fine, I'm using it now in fact.  DNS isn't really working for LAN however.  On the Wireless side it's great, gets a connection, resolves names and works, but using Ethernet I have to put Plusnet's DNS servers in Windows to get it to work properly.  For some reason my router isn't forwarding DNS requests on the ethernet side, just the wireless side.  My config looks like so:

Given the number of problems like this I can find on Google http://www.google.com/search?client=ubuntu&channel=fs&q=877W+cisco+80710102&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8#hl=en&... it seems a common problem.  I expect one of the search results will give you the solution you need.

Re: Any Cisco experts around?

I've looked at pretty much all of them.  I don't have a problem with DNS itself, DNS works perfectly.... on the router, I can traceroute www.google.com (well, not anymore, I've done something and broke DNS but I digress) but it's not umm, forwarding properly or something unless I configure my PC manually, I'm missing some kind of "forward dns" setting.
/edit - ok, if I set Windows up to use 192.168.0.1 as my DNS server.... it works, this is quite insane  Crazy

Re: Any Cisco experts around?

Doesn't that imply that the DHCP inst giving DNS settings outs?

Re: Any Cisco experts around?

Dunno, my mobile is able to surf the net over wi-fi (3g turned off) so it is sending out the required information over wi-fi, although I had to set my laptop up with dns 8.8.8.8 to get it to work properly on that now, so I'm puzzled, it's working but it's not working.  I didn't have this problem on my 857W so yeah, I'm lost in a world of IOSness.

Re: Any Cisco experts around?

As fourfourdevon has said... don't you have to enter the dns-server  addresses in the dhcp pool section of your config?

Re: Any Cisco experts around?

Nope, in Dialer0 there is:
ppp ipcp dns request
Which requests the DNS servers from PlusNet, you can configure them manually if you want and have PlusNet, OpenDNS and Google all at once (not sure why).  Anyhow, something went wrong with the router and it deleted the flash memory (yay) so I had to start again from scratch, this time it works!  I'm now trying to get IPV6 up and running with a dynamic IP using he.net, so far so good, I've managed to set the 877W up to give out IPV6 addresses, I just can't seem to figure out how to open the router to allow ICMP requests so the router can automatically update my ipv4 endpoint address to give me ipv6...  I'm guessing I need to add an "allow" before that "deny" but Java being Java, SDM doesn't exactly work very well on Windows 7 and all the kerfaffle has dropped my IP profile down to 2mb.... it's slow to download the stuff I'm trying to download  Crazy
Oh well, patience is a virtue.

Yes but as fourfourdevon and soft360lap1 have said, don't you need a DNS entry in the DHCP section to tell the clients which DNS server to use (whether the 877 itself or an external one)? You should be able to check which DNS servers the clients are using and see whether the wireless client(s) are picking up the 877 or are using a different one.

Re: Any Cisco experts around?

I believe (and I could be wrong, it's very complex) that:the overload statements cover it all.  My current (working) config is sending the DNS servers to my PC (it shows up in network settings) but I can't ping from the router now.

Re: Any Cisco experts around?

Perhaps you need to add the "ip dns server" command.

It seems to work, I'm connected, my laptop is connected and I can surf the net (slowly), well I did change the auto-update to IP address rather than domain name as the router won't translate it now.  Still trying to get the IPV6 tunnel to work correctly.
