Well, dhcp will be the reason your resolv.conf is being changed.... If
you are using pumpd then in /etc/pump.conf put:
device eth0 {
nodns
}
That'll stop it touching your resolv.conf file along with your ip's etc.

no no - downloads are fast, navigation is painful
DCHP is set on the router & also on Linux (I believe at least, because
Linux installed itself from Debian's FTP server using the automatic DHCP
routine of the installer ... )
