I bet your external interface is setup for DHCP. What is happening is that
your DHCP client is rewriting resolv.conf with the DHCP data it is getting
from your ISP (effectively ignoring your manually entered values). You need
to tell DHCPcD (or whichever client daemon you are using on the external
interface) not to retrieve the DNS settings from the DHCP server. I'm
running Bering 3.1, so your milage may vary, but for me (using DHCPcD): In
lrcfg, choose the modules setup and pick DHCPcD (or just edit the config
file directly: /etc/dhcpc/config). The file looks like this in my case:


# Config file for dhcpcd.

Change SET_DNS='yes' to SET_DNS='no'

All fixed!
