Bug Description

Ubuntu 16.04, 64bits, Dell XPS 15.

When I wake up from sleep mode, I can no longer reach any domain by name, but still ping any IP address.

Other users reported this problem here: http://askubuntu.com/questions/837575/dns-resolution-fails-after-wakeup-from-standby-ubuntu-16-10

One of the proposed workaround is to disable dns caching by commenting out "dns=dnsmasq" in /etc/NetworkManager/NetworkManager.conf.

Since dnsmasq is espacially useful when you use VPN, I must add I have openvpn setup on my machine so it could be part of the problem.

This is actually the same issue in Bug #1675519, even though the title says different stuff, thus I'm marking it as duplicate.
