How do I setup network before joining domain?

For this specific install environment my DHCP server does not handout the proper DNS server due to which I am assuming domain joining fails since the unattended install gets stuck at 94%. There are no before or after logon entries in this iso except for a command to setup DNS server does this in fact run after attempting to domain join? Does "Ethernet" not exist so the command fails (netsh interface ip set dns "Ethernet" static <my dns sever ip>)? How do I make this work?

And unfortunately I cannot change the DHCP server to handout the correct DNS server for these machines so I gotta figure out this.
 
The interface name can vary, like "Ethernet" or "Local Area Connection".

I don't own an AD environment, but can you hardcode your domain controllers' hostname in the HOSTS file? Presumably after a successful join, you could script a cleanup on the HOSTS file.
