I have openwrt WR rc5 on a linksys wrtsl54gs usb router, and it has worked fine for a couple years now, but the last week or so, I have had a dns problem come up a few times.

The LAN computers are not able to load web pages, but the router config page comes up fine.  On the web interface I can see that the router has an external IP address, but each time I have had this problem it shows WAN DNS server as 127.0.0.1.   When I reset the connection type, and force it to pull an IP address from the wan again, it correctly assigns the WAN DNS servers, and the dns works again.

This morning when it happened, I checked the uptime of the router, and it showed 1:30.  Not sure why it rebooted this morning, so I checked /var/log/messages, and here's the best info I could find on the dns part of the reboot.

Dec 31 18:00:25 (none) user.info : debug, Sending discover...

Dec 31 18:00:27 (none) kern.info dnsmasq[648]: using local addresses only for domain lan

After seeing that "ignoring nameserver 127.0.0.1 - local interface" I checked /etc/resolv.conf:

root@OpenWrt:~# cat /etc/resolv.conf
search hsd1.tn.comcast.net.
nameserver 68.87.68.162
nameserver 68.87.74.162



What can I do to make sure the dns servers on wan are set properly on reboot, and what caused this change all of a sudden?
