Correct DNS servers there.

Kernel IP routing table
Destination  Gateway        Genmask        Flags  MSS Window  irttIface
85.76.240.0  *              255.255.240.0  U         0 0        0 eth0
default      vl248.rx1.bna.t 0.0.0.0       UG        0 0        0 eth0

It went all the way to 
rrcs-24-106-27-42.west.biz.rr.com  24.106.27.42
(the 15th server) after which it was just "no reply". (I wish it was
possible to copy and paste the results there - perhaps I'll do a
bugreport/feature request about it)

Does this reveal anything interesting?
