My network is behind a Technicolor TG582n provided by my ISP, it seems as if the firmware was modded to change some branding stuff and hide some features, but nothing much apart from that, I think. The problem is that by checking the DNS entries (via telnet) I can see the following:
{ISP}=> dns server host list
Address Type Hostname TTL (s) Creator
192.168.1.103 * A android-563cbc8707b8b48 0 DHCP_Server
192.168.1.104 * A android-724e830e4f3ce335 0 DHCP_Server
192.168.1.107 * A android-d01c6d882f6ab824 0 DHCP_Server
However if I test some of the entries with nslookup
I get this:
$ nslookup - 192.168.1.254
> android-563cbc8707b8b48
...
192.18.10.163
When it should be 192.168.1.103
, as if the digits were scrambled somehow. It even fails with custom entries, I get:
> test
...
192.1.106.118
Instead of 192.168.1.1
, so what could be the problem here? Is this feature broken on this brand and model or did my ISP really mess up the router's firmware?
Edit:
Also note that names like google.com
work perfectly fine, i.e. for that name I am getting 216.58.193.46
as a response from the router and the address is correct.
What DNS server is the machine doing the
nslookup
using? Check in case its more than one. - I have just moved one of these routers so I may be able to check with a UK version in the next day or 2. – user3788685 – 2017-12-20T23:19:39.913@user3788685 the machine is using the home router's built-in DNS server at the gateway address
192.168.1.254
