What do you mean by "the name server is the box ip"? Do you mean your
router's IP or the computer's own IP? If the latter, then unless you're
running bind on your local machine that's your problem.

Check the real situation thus:

$ cat /etc/resolv.conf

That will tell you what your name servers are. Make sure they exist and
are actually resolving names, e.g. if /etc/resolv.com contains:

nameserver 1.2 3.4

then try:

$ dig @1.2.3.4 mit.edu

Do the same on your other machines. Are they all using the same
nameserver?
