LibreElec (8.0.0) pings my router every 0.25 seconds

RasPiLi · February 25, 2017 at 4:06 PM

Hi folks,

I am using pi.hole on a separate RasPi(1) as an Ad-Blocker which is connected to my router (Fritz.Box 7490 (latest FW 6.80)).

Now, I detected that a lot of "Queries" appear in my pi.hole log. My Kodi-Setup (installed on a RasPi(2); listed as client), send every half milli-second a query to my router.

Any hints why is this happening?

How nice of you to present your evidence in an easily readible fashion.

I can assure you that a clean setup of LibreELEC will not pester your router every 0.25 second.

Supply us your full, unabbreviated kodi.log and perhaps we'll find the solution.

Stupid me! You were right, better look first in log files!

Seems the "Fritzbox Callmonitor" V2.0.9 add-on caused the constantly high ping rate:
