Well, that's not nothing, is it?

As indicated here, your current nameserver (= DNS resolver) is 192.168.1.1, which is also probably your router. Using DHCP, it advertises itself as a nameserver and your computer uses it.

Usually, these are simply stub resolvers, that simply forward your requests to your ISP, which has a proper recursive resolver. You have to take a look at you're router's configuration to learn more about that; nothing guix can do about it.

You could change your settings by using the static-networking service, or by manually changing your connexion details in network-manager, I suppose.
