Curious name resolution issue

Let me write this up whilst it still fresh in my mind.

I recently posted info concerning my name resolution going AWOL. Well, it did it again.

Yesterday I changed the IP designation from DHCP to static as I was on a network that uses static IPs. I changed it back to dynamic and this morning couldn't resolve any names to IPs and couldn't ping outside the home network.

Upon changing from DHCP to a static IP I could ping outside the home network, but not with names only IP addresses.

Upon changing from the static IP to a dynamic IP again, I can resolve names.

Curious to say the least.
