When I say DNS appears to have stopped working, what I mean is that
this is what happens as I connect to the wireless network
temp...@jonah:~$ ping www.google.co.uk
ping: unknown host www.google.co.uk
temp...@jonah:~$ ping www.google.co.uk
ping: unknown host www.google.co.uk

The router I and using currently is:
D-Link Model DGL-4300
And it says it has the latest firmware version, 1.8, 2007/03/01
Hope that helps.
Thanks,
Toby.
