This sounds like you have a misconfigured wattcp.cfg file. The DOS version of lynx uses a builtin TCP/IP stack, Watt-32. Please look carefully at your wattcp.cfg file. If you have "my_ip" set to DHCP, it may automatically find your DNS server. Otherwise, you need to put the IP address of your DNS server in wattcp.cfg as a line starting "nameserver=". Your ISP may have changed the IP address of their nameserver, which would need to be updated in wattcp.cfg. Be sure to specify either WATTCP.CFG or WATTCP_CFG in your environment, pointing to the address for the wattcp.cfg file.
