ubuntu jaunty (v9.04) vs. DLink DIR-655 gateway/router/access-point
 

Does anyone have experience with the D-LINK DIR-655 gateway OR router OR wireless access point? On the surface, I like this box, but it is giving me grief. Can anyone help me?

First, it wants me to use a win-dose CD configurator application.
I use the embedded web page configurator. Next, there are several configuration wizards at the embedded web page. After trying the wizards, I went to the manual screens to tinker to get something working.

So what is going on?

• When a LAN client connects, I want DHCP to present at least two "nameserver" values ... which then make their way into /etc/resolv.conf
• The DIR-655 plays some nameserver games like caching and blacklisting and other things. However, I get some ad-vert page from "dnssearch" or "yahoo" or similar when names don't resolve. I really don't want this behavior.
• Network-manager does not report the connection down, however streaming anything stops or "reconnects", browsing times out, LAN side traffic seems to stop as well.

Frustrated and stumped,

Have you tried just setting the dns servers? It should be a matter of plugging in the servers and clicking "save settings"
