That makes no sense.

Say I have freshly installed my fedora system at home. I then boot it up
and start to use it. My laptop is caching DNS results all the while from
the "unreliable" ISP.

I then go to work and suddenly things don't work.

Having a DNS cache doesn't fix your unreliable ISP: You need to lodge a
complaint with your ISP. 

See my previous email, about flushing the cache on network change.
