      This is if I don't set the DNS manually.

      # cat /var/etc/resolv.conf
      domain local
      
      
      # cat /var/etc/nameserver*
      85.37.17.13

        I have the same issue.

        In the resolv.conf file and nameserver file I get the same thing, just with my ISP's DNS server instead.

        Below is the GUI, looks sorta weird, the ISP DNS servers cell is missing.

            I can't duplicate the issue with stock DHCP.  I guess everyone is running PPPoE?  I see thinair's screenshot which supports this hunch.

            Please modify /etc/rc.newwanip and insert:

            /* regenerate DNS servers / resolv.conf */
                    system_resolvconf_generate();

            Right before:

            /* signal filter reload */
            touch("/tmp/filter_dirty");

            Does it fix it?

                What does /var/etc/resolv.conf show now?

                Please make a screenshot of what you mean as blank.

                    update_file.sh /etc/inc/pfsense-utils.inc

                    And please try again.

                        Okay, I'm still waking up, but I think that it should be okay now.

                        update_file.sh /etc/inc/pfsense-utils.inc

                        And reboot again.

                        BUMP!  Please test this ASAP, I'm about out of time for the day and need to get a new version out the door if this fixes your issue!

                          Still not running.

                          Now I get "Fatal error: Call to a member function on a non-object in /etc/inc/pfsense-utils.inc on line 1118" going in the Firmware menu (/system_firmware_check.php).

                          In the GUI, in Interface, now i can read the DNS. This is the HTML:

                          ISP DNS servers
                          
                          		85.37.17.13
                          
                          

                          (I noted the two "
                          ". I think it's only comestic).

                          /var/etc/nameserver.conf is not found.

                          # cat /var/etc/resolv.conf
                          domain local
                          
                          

                          Tell me if you need anything else.

                          Best.

                            That is because we mixed head with RELENG_1.  Try this from a shell:

                            fetch -o /etc/inc/pfsense-utils.inc "http://cvs.pfsense.com/cgi-bin/cvsweb.cgi/~checkout~/pfSense/etc/inc/pfsense-utils.inc?rev=1.316.2.23;content-type=text%2Fplain;only_with_tag=RELENG_1"

                                I'm at a loss, because Emab says the interfaces now show in interfaces status.

                                What i've done REALLY should have fixed it.

                                          fetch -o /etc/inc/system.inc "http://cvs.pfsense.com/cgi-bin/cvsweb.cgi/~checkout~/pfSense/etc/inc/system.inc?rev=1.79.2.12;content-type=text%2Fplain;only_with_tag=RELENG_1"

                                            I get this:
                                            fetch: http://cvs.pfsense.com/cgi-bin/cvsweb.cgi/~checkout~/pfSense/etc/inc/system.inc?rev=1.79.2.12;content-type=text%2Fplain;only_with_tag=RELENG_1: No address record

                                            In fact I've always gotten that no address record message with every fetch entered here.

                                            Anyway, still didn't work.  I appreciate the effort you're putting into this though.  I guess it is a PPPoE thing?
