The resolv.conf file is points to 127.0.1.1 instead of what is configured in the connection. To recreate ----------- On Ubuntu 16.10 (fully patched as of 2016-09-30): 1) Create an ipv4 wifi connection, with a manually set a dns server. 2) Connect to that wifi connection 3) Test name resolution - it will still be using 127.0.1.1 instead of your manually configured server This might be considered a security problem for people that use special DNS configurations or dnscrypt.
