Hi,
I've been running the latest LibreELEC on a Pi for some time - works great - thanks!
I recently changed my networking infrastructure (from Draytek to Ubiquiti) and LibreELEC started failing in a seemingly weird manner. I've spent a little time digging in to it and I'll do more if I'm not misunderstanding things.
I have various DNS entries on my gateway server. On various computers/VMs which use DHCP, it uses the gateway for the DNS server (10.1.1.1) and I can use nslookup to see my mediaserver (a Synology NAS).
However, on my Pi/LibreELEC (which gets address using DHCP), it uses the connman default DNS servers (8.8.8.8 etc.).
If I change Kodi to use manual IP configuration and set IP address, DNS servers etc, the UI seems to show that all ok but connman still uses 8.8.8.8 so I can't see my NAS when I set up the media libraries. If I try to update connman using connman config... it seems to work ok (i.e. no errors) but doesn't change anything - the connman.conf file remains unchanged as does resolv.conf. As the conf file is on a RO filesystem, I can't update it manually (and I'd not expect to have to do that). On tp of that, I try to set the username/password for the NAS so I can delete/manage my library but that gets ignored in the UI (which seems odd - it previously worked for me and I'm sure there would be lots of people mentioning it if it was a bug).
The Pi is running off a SD card and I'm wondering as I type this if that's reached the end of its life somehow and I just need to replace that.
I've seen this which I'm reading as my expectations of behaviour are correct, but I'm happy to be corrected: DHCP with Manual DNS - Bug Reports - LibreELEC Forum
I've had a look through the kodi log file and I see no errors about the settings but I can look further if I'm not making a schoolboy error!
Many thanks
