Isn't that option visible first when You set static IP?

Aha! Thanks!

So, LE Settings>Connections>[Choose your wifi]>Edit>DNS Servers>Nameserver #1 etc.>Done

I wonder what file this actually changes. Must be a connman fille . . . .

Use the LE settings add-on to edit the active network connection and set specific nameservers.

Thanks for the response. Is the "LE settings add-on" the same as the LE settings menu item? The one that has the options System, Network, Connections, Services, Bluetooth, About and is described here: LibreELEC Settings [LibreELEC.wiki] ? I can't find anything in there that would let me set nameservers.

Perhaps I am in the wrong place?

Is there a way to add a config file in /var? Or modify an existing one?

I am trying to set static nameservers for my kodi box. I think I know how to do that using connman, but I cannot save the needed config file or, alternatively, change /etc/connman/main.conf because the filesystem is mounted read only.

Searches for dealing with the read only issue have turned up many suggestions to put whatever new files one creates in /storage, but that won't work for the connman file.
