That file should point to the router, the router should get the
dynamic name server information from the ISP. I have a similar
intermittent problem with my SMC4008ABR. Other than forcing the name
server information into the Config file (via YaST) I have found that
dis-connecting the DSL connection, and then reconnecting, using it's
administration software, to be a cure.
