Dialup problems after adding laptop into domain

Running AD with internal DNS, and DHCP, and GPO.

On laptops, after joining into my company¹s domain, DIALUP is OK, but DNS
not working, as IP address has to be used instead of domain names to browse
the web or email. Confirm that the laptop¹s is not getting DNS service ...

Anybody can help ...
 
If part of an AD domain, you MUST use the internal DNS only. You can't use
the dialup ISP's DNS. If you're logging in from home, you can change it
manually to accomodate, but you need to put it back when at the office.

Hi, that's the issue, after changing the DNS settings in the laptop to point
to the ISP DNS server, it still won't work ..

That's what I mean by forcing it to the internal DNS. This has been an issue
in regards to dialup and VPNs. Sometimes a HOSTS file with data about the AD
network would be a viable alternative.
