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.
