Which is unusual, but not necessarily wrong. If you got the DNS server details via DHCP then something is definitely wrong: DHCP servers would not tell clients to ask themselves for DNS queries (!) nslookup tried the first server at 192.168.1.1 (your local LAN/WIFI I assume). But this server is not configured to accept recursive queries, i.e. it will only accept queries for domains it its zone files. Assuming that 192.168.1.1 is your local LAN's DNS server, then this DNS server is misconfigured. The nslookup tried the 2nd server (127.0.0.1) which didn't have a clue about the google.com domain. So you may have two separate problems on your hands here. I'd recommend that you first look at *why* 192.168.1.1 will not respond to recursive queries - the default configuration for bind would (at least on Debian), so something has been misconfigured there since install. If you are using DHCP on this network and got the DNS details via DHCP, then the DHCP server is likely misconfigured too: telling clients to use 127.0.0.1 for DNS lookups is a not-so-subtle way of telling clients to "f off" !? -- Karl E.
