This Dns clinet error problem haunts me. Is there a real fix?
Boggin:
Yes, your router is broadcasting a wireless signal all of the time and DHCP will assign an IP address to each device as it is switched on.
On mine, I can have a machine Ethernet connected but the Ethernet light on the router will not come on until that machine has been switched on and assigned a DHCP IP address - all other lights remain on and just the Ethernet light will go out when I switch that machine off.
My broadband connection will remain intact.
You don't seem to have had much joy from your ISP for setting up the router - D-Link may help but ISPs may have their own particular settings which are specific to them.
Yours is the first router I've seen using WAN Bridged - was that a default setting or what your ISP told you to set it up as ?
Boggin:
I've just been looking in my ISP supplied Fibre router and it does list a WAN IP but it's for my external IP address.
It's a HG635 and doesn't appear to have a Bridging mode.
The Operating Mode is set to Auto but it gives a choice of WAN or DSL.

Hi, It is not in bridged mode. It is in PPPoe mode, that is connection thro cable thro telephone.
What you see in the picture is default. The actual is at the bottom, where the configured mode is shown. I checked and it is in pppoe mode only. Really i do not know, what is wan ip being fixed.
I will go through all the commands starting with your host command. If the problem is fixed, i will inform you immediately.. Pl see post 20 and 21

Hi, Boggins, See this router page, where all the information on dhcp server is available including the pool.
What is dns relay, is it different from dchp server. The default is given. I think, that there is no need to change anything there.
But i have a doubt, that there is a default server name called domain.name.
I do not have any domain. The computer properties list as workgroup only.
please your ideas.
Morever, i have attempted all the repairs in the link. But still, i am experiencing a re connection on log on. The dsl goes out and come back leaving some minutes without internet access.
But the name resolution for domain name timed out, gives some other domain or com name, now
please
