[Bug 1456112] Re: Phone doesn't use WiFi DNS when also connected to cell
Thanks replying and apologies for the delay - busy week! Finally found
some time to dig out the log (learning a thing or two about adb on the
way which has been good). I whittled it down to what I hope are the
important parts - shows connecting to Vodafone then BT WiFi. Looks like
both nameservers are there but it still didn't work connecting to
various Web pages.

Title:
Phone doesn't use WiFi DNS when also connected to cell
Status in the base for Ubuntu mobile products:
New
Status in network-manager package in Ubuntu:
New
Bug description:
Apologies if this is covered elsewhere but I couldn't find it and
wasn't sure what package would cover it so opted for system-settings.
It is a fairly specific bug given not everyone will be using BT wifi,
but probably the issue will arise with other ISPs.
When I turn on wifi at home, my phone connects to the Hub fine but Web
access is limited because the phone continues to use the DNS settings
from the cell network (I think). I get an error from BT about using
external DNS rather than those it supplies (required for the child
filter). I haven't tried disabling the filters yet but I could I
suppose.
If I turn on flight mode and then re-enable wifi everything works fine
but then I don't get phone calls, etc. of course.
Turing off flight mode breaks stuff again.
The phone is a BQ Aquaris E4.5 Ubuntu Edition running Ubuntu 14.10
