how to permanently disable dhcp on net connection

efa2 · January 4, 2018 at 10:50 PM

on Kodi 16.1 I tryed to set Connection to Manual instead of DHCP, and set a static IP.

When I disconnect the net and reconnect the cable, it back to auto/DHCP.

I'm using USB tethering on a mobile, so I haven't a real DHCP server, and the resulting Kodi IP is everytime different.

How to fix the connection to Manual/static IP, and disable the DHCP ?

In the LibreELEC settings go to connections. Select the connection you are using and select "Edit". Then under the ipv4 options change from dhcp to manual. Then select save.

I already do that, when I disconnect the net and reconnect the cable, it back to auto/DHCP.

I just updated to LibreELEC 8.2.1 with Kodi 17.6, same results.

Saving the ipv4 option to manual, keep the setting on your Kodi once disconnect and reconnect the cable?
