Tom, There was a change in 0.7 to affect this behavior.
So called 'localdns' is the default. This is why /etc/resolv.conf shows the nameserver 127.0.0.1. If you want to revert this to the old behavior add LOCALDNS="no" to your user.conf file (in /mnt/kd/rc.conf.d/ then reboot). This still should result in external DNS working though. Is the dnsmasq process running on the Astlinux box? The so-called 'pbx-only' mode changes another item too. The firewall is always on. So you'll need to configure the firewall. This is most easily done from the web interface. You don't need an internal interface configured to set up the firewall. If you're upgrading from a 0.6.x device, the firewall tab should prompt you to update the firewall config files. If you're configuring the firewall from the command line, do not directly edit /mnt/kd/arno-iptables-firewall/firewall.conf. The values you wish to set should be set in a .conf file in the /mnt/kd/rc.conf.d/ directory. The web interface will do the right thing for you.
