I have found I needed to add
    After=network-online.target
to dnsmasq.service
to ensure my ethernet port, ens18, is available, on boot.
Using Ubuntu 16.04.2
In my case, I am using dnsmasq as per the PiHole installation where the IP is 
static and dhcpclient is turned off. But this is clearly not a PiHole problem 
as it just installs Dnsmasq.
Rather surprised I need to add this report, and that this Bug report isn't a 
higher Importance and not resolved in 3 months.
Surely loads of users will have this issue?
Kind Regards
