Public bug reported: Having paired an Android phone, the network manager menu in Unity displays the "GT-I9300 Network" appropriately and I can tether over the phone's mobile broadband just fine.
However, the PAN's nameserver setting is put directly into /etc/resolv.conf (instead of doing the dnsmasq thing) _and_ is left there, like so, even after disconnecting and connecting to a different (WiFi) network: # Dynamic resolv.conf(5) file for glibc resolver(3) generated by resolvconf(8) # DO NOT EDIT THIS FILE BY HAND -- YOUR CHANGES WILL BE OVERWRITTEN nameserver 192.168.44.1 nameserver 127.0.1.1 (The 127.0.1.1 part isn't there before connecting to WiFi, it is added at that point, but the now-defunct BT PAN nameserver address persists.) This greatly interferes with DNS queries.
