The 'domain' field is not a server - it is what is used if you ask
for DNS lookup but dont give the full name -
e.g. you DNS lookup XXX
Then it will try XXX.2wire.net
If you ask for XXX.com the domain field plays no role.

Unlikely to be the problem. It is possible however that the DNS on
the router is a problem - or your ISP DNS (which it uses) is a problem.
