DNS lookup failed - ubuntu server routing between subnets.


So, I'm routing traffic between subnet .0.0/24 and .1.0/24

From Dev. A, I can get a ping to reach Google using an IP, and can obviously get to the site using the IP, -but- whenever I use the URL, a DNS lookup fails.

I've spoken to someone who thinks that it's something to do with DHCP not passing on DNS information to the leased IP's. And that the Device will be looking for DNS information from the access point, and not the router.

^^ link to a visual example of what I'm talking about.

Basically, ping from Dev all the way through the network to the internet works. But DNS fails.
Any clues as to what might be causing it? I'll do some work on it later and keep you all informed.
Thanks in advance for the replies.

Regards

Rev.

Okay boys and girls. I managed to fix it, no need for a reply... basically, i forgot to add the 8.8.8.8 into the static DNS server list under the DHCP settings on the Linksys AP.

Thanks for checking by to help though

regards
