When I was using a 504T as a router, the Linux clients on my network had a lot of problems with the modem's built-in nameserver. Windows clients would work just fine, OSX would work, but I seem to recall it logging errors with name resolution, and 9 times out of 10 Linux just wouldn't work with it at all. Somewhere else in the thread, Heracles talked about changing your Linux machine's DNS server. If that didn't help, I'd suggest checking your ISP's support pages for their name server address, and use that instead.
