If you use NSLookup, are you able to connect to your DNS servers? Do they
reply to a query that you put in?

Example:

Default Server: DNS.YourISP.com
Address: A.B.C.D

> www.google.com
Server: DNS.YourISP.com
Address: A.B.C.D

Name: WWW.Google.com
Address: 66.102.7.99

>

If not, you may want to use a network sniffer to verify the packet flow.
