Hi all, My question "does it always fail" is aswered in THIS mail ;-)
It looks like you have limited ipv4 connectivity. That would explain why it takes a couple of times before you get an answer from a dns server. The answer is from a ipv6 capable dns server? anyway, i will wait for your routing table and see if that will give us some idea about what is going on. Good luck in the mean time !
