Is there any chance you could setup pppconfig to use "static nameservers"? If yes, choose that and set the nameservers you want (openDNS or Google ones should be fine for testing purposes). After that, if you still experience the name lookup "lag" problem, then you cannot blame the dns servers... just your ISP :-) Greetings, -- Camaleón -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-REQUEST(a)lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".

There must be a firewall somewhere down the line as google's public DNS on 8.8.8.8 is a pingable IP (At least, I can ping it from here). Can you ping any external address at all ? google.com for example. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-REQUEST(a)lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
