Usually you need "nameserver 8.8.8.8", not just the IP. Or is a plain IP accepted as well?

- JepZ 9y ago:D its funny how many mistakes you can do in a single command: - yes, I wanted to write to /etc/resolv.conf - yes, I wanted to write "nameserver 8.8.8.8" - overwriting the file was intentional as otherwise the old nameserver would still be first. echo "nameserver 8.8.8.8" > /etc/resolv.conf Too bad, I can't edit my initial post and correct the complete nonsense.
