I think we are resolved...
I statically set my NAT'd WIN PC to what the Laptop was picking up and
problem solved..
I edited named.conf and set my forwarders to what my laptop was picking up
and problem solved.. my named.conf have the forwarder set to:
192.168.1.1, apparently the new router and an old dns server from my last
job.. which normally worked fine..
i suspect that the old router was able to handle dns, while this one
cannot...
Thanks so much..
