Yes, I've looked through David Purton's dump again and catch that
broken dns answers are arrived with ttl=64 and ip id equal to ip id
of client packets, while google's anwers come with ttl=116-117 and
random ip ids, as it should be for large computing farm behind
load balancer. So dns mangling is probably performed on WiFi AP.
