Check /etc/nsswitch.conf for the order of dna.
Then verify dns settings for NetworkManager's network profile.
Also verify that you have a route to reach the 2 DNS servers.

I am using 15 VMPlayer with a network connection in the bridged mode. have assigned the static IP address in the same range as my
current VLAN from the SOHO router. DNS settings and routes are defined. Yet it is not working.

Are you able to ping your gateway?
Are you able to ping 8.8.8.8 or 8.8.4.4?

If you're using a static ip address in the same range that VMWare assigns using DHCP then it may be blocking the packets as it doesn't recognise the ip you are using should be allowed. Does it work when using DHCP?
The future appears to be RHEL or Debian. I think I'm going Debian.

CentOS 5 and 6 are deadest, do not use them.
