ok. Here we go.
Try to edit /etc/resolv.conf. (symlink, but anyway.)
add a line:
nameserver IP.OF.YOUR.ROUTER
save. Do NOT reboot.
try nslookup google.com.
Does this work?

Hi ...
now I have upgraded my WLHDD with a 120 GB harddrive ... taking the chance to change from ASUS firmware 1.2.3.9 to Oleg's latest V1.9.2.7-7f ...
Thanks to Wengi for his very good Howto Thread in the german forum !
I use the WLHDD in my local network as only a storage / torrent device ... setting it up with special swap, opt and 3 datapartitions ... everything is working well until I change from dhcp to static IP ...
I have a router in my local (192.168.0.x) network ... everything is workin well ... I'm able to telnet or ssh to the wlhdd with ip adress ... I am able to ping and contact from wlhdd into local network and internet if using direct ip adresses. But if I want to use dnsnames ... I could not get contact :-( ... searching around resolv.conf is empty in every directory /tmp, /tmp/etc, /etc! Notes ome of this are only file/ directory links!
I searched around in webinterface, not able to find settings to set nameserver for use with static ip address!
Trying to set nameserver in resolv.conf manually and safe it into flashfs does not work ... maybe it is saved, but not restoreds after reboot :-(
Anybody an idea?
THX for any help
Martin

Hi Wengi,
Thanks ... I searched around with some other keywords ... found the solution (I think and it works) ... inside the russian part of the forum ...
Found here in russian forum
That's what I able to understand in the russian post :-) ... replace nameserver IP with yours ...
Hope Oleg will read this post, so he will be able to correct the problem in next version :-)Originally Posted by translated from russian post
Now my next project will be (maybe) ... there are some posts "RAM upgrade" ... and connect a small lcd display and some keys to wlhdd ...
THX
Martin

I have solved it. I forgot the flashfs save/commit/enable stuff so the new file was not saved into the flash.
