[Note: This has already been resolved in commit:5feadf7fca75866582af73834c8d2ab14edca456 - Putting an entry here for others to find] In 2.0.2-RELEASE, PPP type WANs, such as PPPoE, do not obtain DNS servers properly. By consequence, if a user has defined no custom DNS servers, they can end up without functional DNS. This is due to an issue in the ppp-linkup script not properly parsing the parameters passed to it by mpd. Workaround 1: #1: Add DNS servers under System > General. If you do not know your DNS servers, use common public DNS servers like 8.8.8.8 / 8.8.4.4 or 208.67.222.222 / 208.67.220.220 Workaround 2: #2: Install the "System Patches Package":http://doc.pfsense.org/index.php/System_Patches Add a new patch and fetch/apply it: Name: ppp_dns_fix URL: https://github.com/bsdperimeter/pfsense/commit/5feadf7fca75866582af73834c8d2ab14edca456 Path Strip Count: 1 Base: / Ignore Whitespace: [X]
