Default SOLVED: Unable to resolve host [2006]

I had this problem and tried out several solutions (reboot, switch wifi, etc.) and none worked.
I could surf if I knew the IP address of the target, but DNS was not working.

The solution that worked out for me was to apply the patch "WAN DNS Uses Google"

After that I got DNS back. and everything works fine again.

Why does WebOS loses DNS? I checked resolv.conf at /etc and it just had the localhost (127.0.0.1). Where else should one check this out?
