If, as in my case, the DNS servers of your provider are really bad, this problem can cause really slow DNS lookups. I don't know whether this problem is caused by the KNetworkManager front-end or by NetworkManager itself. The respective config file in "$HOME/.kde4/share/apps/networkmanagement/connections/" contains the line "ignoredhcpdns=true", so the setting is stored correctly. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Create a new wireless connection in KNetworkManager. 2. On the "IP Address" tab, select "Automatic (DHCP) addresses only" and enter adresses of some DNS servers. 3. Activate the connection. Actual Results: The DNS servers provided by DCHP are used with higher priority than the DNS servers entered manually in KNetworkManager (i.e., if I enter two DNS servers manually and DCHP provides two DNS servers, NetworkManager uses the two servers provided by DHCP and the first server entered manually). Expected Results: NetworkManager should completely ignore the DNS servers offered by DHCP.
