[lgkahn]

i have issue on my gt axe-16000 i just got to replace the 11000

i believe the issue is the /etc/resolv.conf is blank and not being populated correctly even though (see below) dns servers are configured)


thats definatley the issue:
when i configured the resolv.con as on the other router it works fine.

it should look like this

any ideas why its not being populated on boot

nameserver 75.75.76.76
nameserver 8.8.8.8
nameserver 192.168.11.1

working now after reboot after i manually configured the resolv.conf.. i guess it is persistant accross boots?

strange setting up the lan static config doesnt populate it..

I guess that is the bug..
