Ccampora and Sladner84,
I am staying at an university and I use a static IP just like you do.
After following Ccampora's workaround, I am able to access the internet
fine. Hope it works for you too!

Title:
DNS Resolve Problems in Ubuntu 12.04
Status in “network-manager” package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
I just updated to Ubuntu 12.04.
After the update I cannot resolve hostnames reliably:
I use Konsole in Unity. There sometimes the DNS resolving works fine and
suddenly after two commands or so it fails for the same address.
E.g. I ping a machine without DNS-Suffix (the suffix is shown in my network
config correctly aside 3 valid nameserver IPs) and everything works fine. Then
I try to log into the machine with the same address via ssh and I get a "Name
or service not known".
Trying again, it works with a fully qualified name containing the suffix. I
also had cases, when the IP wasn't resolved although I put in the fully
qualified name. When I am more lucky, it starts working again with machine
names only (without suffix, which is configured and worked perfectly up to now)
Is there probably a bug in the new Ubuntu Version?
