Sorry - I can't shed any light on your 2.2r3 problem - I'm still on 2.2r2
myself - but I *can* confirm I use wvdial without any such problem -
connects first time every time - brilliant piece of software, which needed
almost no setting up. My /etc/resolv.conf looks just like yours apart from
the actual addresses.
Does your IP stack actually come up properly apart from the DNS ? Can you
ping any places you should be able to ? (Like the DNS servers themselves)
