Installing and Using OpenWrt Network and Wireless Configuration

Hi,
I am having problem with DNS. The error from syslog is shown below.
I looked at Network-> DHCP and DNS settings, but did not find any problems.
Any suggestions on how to fix this ?

Thanks

  • What are those settings?
  • Have you made any changes from the stock settings?

At the first glance it looks like the router tries to query itself for the address and not forward the query to upstream.

Two suggestions for you thanks to https://www.google.com/search?q=dnsmasq+"config+error+is+REFUSED" :

I am using the stock settings in Network->DHCP and DNS settings.

I did a reset on the router and the issue is solved.
