cannot connect to the internet (DNS?)
-
Hi there!
My Recalbox cannot connect to the Internet as soon as I use static IP by using:wifi.ip=192.168.5.235
wifi.gateway=192.168.5.1
wifi.netmask=255.255.255.0I am pretty sure this is an DNS issue. But cannot find where to set the DNS Server.
However, by using the DHCP setting it works fine. But I would like to use a static IP.Thanks!

Thanks for your quick answer. I didn't know about this article.
Unfortunately, my router does not offer the option of assigning a fixed IP.Unless someone else has a solution, I will wait for a patch or a new version.
Thank you very much!

Which leads me to believe that you really have a DNS problem, and that unfortunately the problem is an incompatibility with your modem that I don't know if there is a solution...

It's an option, but I can't say a new version will solve your problem.

Hi @raketenmann
I see many users claiming that fixed addresses do not work.
I'll check today. Stay tuned.David

It would be great if I could set the DNS in the config file or, even better, one or more DNS Servers would be preconfigured.
However - I could do a beta test imidiate if needed. Got a backup SD-Card ready to try.
Cheers

A new config key is added to address this:
wifi.nameservers=1.1.1.1
where 1.1.1.1 can be replaced by your prefered DNS servers
