By default Dachstein has: ## UDP Services open to outside world # Space seperated list: srcip/mask_dstport # NOTE: bootpc port is used for dhcp client EXTERN_UDP_PORTS="0/0_domain 0/0_bootpc" Remove the "0/0_domain" entry, but leave the "0/0_bootpc" if you are using DHCP to connect to your ISP. I have had this problem once or twice.... other DNS servers are trying to connect to your DNS server on the router (dnscache, tinydns, bind, whatever). I've never had it choke out a router, but dropping the open port will stop them.
