To be perfectly honest, I wouldn't use the router for DNS, as some routers
do and some don't forward DNS correctly (so it causes too many problems
trying to diagnose problems - such as this).

I would configure your ISPs name servers directly in the internet settings.
On the Iyonix, this is !Boot->Network->Internet->Host names.

Configure the primary and secondary name servers to 213.130.128.32 and
213.130.128.33 respectively. If you want, you could enter the router
address as the Tertiary name server.

Make sure the 'Try name server too' option is ticked. Then set/save all the
relevant windows and reboot the machine.
