I've got a QWest Actiontec DSL wireless router that's being a real  
pain. It keeps managing to send a nameserver value of 192.168.0.1,  
and it goes into /etc/resolv.conf. It's confused both Debian 3 and  
the latest Ubuntu, while OS X Tiger handles it just fine. When this  
happens, DNS breaks on the Linux distro and I have to manually edit  
the file to take out the offending line before I can resume using the  
net.

It auto changes resolv.conf and introduces that garbage every time  
the router gets a new IP address.

Can you suggest where in the router I can stop it from suggesting  
that incorrect IP address? 192.168.0.1 is what I normally use for  
configuring the router.

The configuration options the router offers include:

WAN IP Address
Wireless Settings
Wireless Authentication
Wireless Advanced Settings
LAN IP Address
DHCP Server
Services Blocking
Website Blocking
Remote Management
Port Forwarding
DMZ Hosting
Firewall
Dynamic Routing
NAT
Static Routing
Telnet Timeout Setting

warm wishes,
Darcy
