Package: iceweasel
Version: 3.0.6-3
Severity: normal


when connecting to my wlan network (on a motorola router) iceweasel 
issues a page load error on any site. /etc/resolv.conf is updated with 
the router ip by the network manager. pinging the desired site works and 
all other TCP apps work as well (ftp, skype, vpn etc.).
A workaround is to update /etc/resolv.conf with a puplic DNS address 
manually.
Afterwards iceweasel displays the sites as it should.
I have seen this problem only on motorola routers (routers 
shipped by swisscom, which is the main internet provider in 
switzerland).
MS laptops work fine (using firefox or ie) with this router.
