Put "usepeerdns" in /etc/ppp/options to automatically insert the ISP's dns
entries in /etc/resolv.conf when you dialup.

Play around with your ppp settings. There are lots of things you can do to
tune a ppp connection (enabling compression, setting MTU / MRU etc). Then
suspect Satyam's connection, which is admittedly erratic.
