Thus my ploy of changing the resolv file to reflect either 8.8.8.8 or one of the DNS servers listed in my router (from the ISP) works.. sorta. Open to any and all better solutions.

Use https://use.opendns.com/ since Google will occasionally err
depending on several factors:*
*# cat /etc/resolv.conf
nameserver 208.67.222.222
nameserver 208.67.220.220
After editing resolv.conf then change the attribute to make it immutable
so it doesn't get overwritten by the router if using dhcp:
# chattr +i /etc/resolv.conf
... and verify:
# lsattr /etc/resolv.conf
----i---------e---- /etc/resolv.conf
