Comment 21 for bug 434477

The original report was:
> When connecting in Karmic to my broadband connection
> the DNS informations isn't received around 70-80%
> of the times I connect, so I need to disconnect and
> reconnect until the info is received. (Confirmed by
> /etc/resolv.conf being empty except for a comment

Has this problem been fixed in Precise?

BTW, to work around the problem you can add nameserver addresses as follows

    echo "nameserver 12.34.56.78" | sudo resolvconf -a mytemporarynameserveraddresses

(and you'll have to do this again if you reboot) or delete them as follows.

    sudo resolvconf -d mytemporarynameserveraddresses

To add them permanently, add

    nameserver 12.34.56.78

to /etc/resolvconf/resolv.conf.d/base.

But, again, this is only a workaround.
