The Actiontec works as a DNS cache (or maybe proxy). It seems not to
deal well with AAAA (IPv6) queries, IIRC. So perhaps convincing your
apps not to make those will help. Or skipping the Actiontec like you have.
Is there a setting to disable the Actiontec DNS stuff but still leave
the DNS dynamic? QWest's end of your DSL connection will tell the
router what servers to use and if you make them static you won't pick up
any changes (which happened about 2 years ago).
