Actually, I did have the same problem. For months now, we've told all our
clients to manually put in the DNSes into DUN. When I tried the 0x51 debug
a couple of weeks back, it showed that automatic DNS assignment does work
(on a PM3 at least). I can only infer that DUN is being b****y about it
(and only sometimes too). I'd be willing to put up my debug output, if you
or someone can get one where the DNS assignment failed. Then we can
compare notes and see what exactly is not going right.
