Using WRT54GL v1.1  Was using vers 3.0.0, upgraded to 3.1.

Problems with DNS.  Set DNS suffix to "local.mesh" and get "localnode:8080" to resolve once on Windows.  Works randomly  or not at all after.  

Can get to local server only with localhost:<port> but not localnode:<port> or localnode.local.mesh:<port>

Fails connection with DNS_PROBE_FINISHED_NO_INTERNET

Tried ipconfig /flushdns and /release and /renew but no joy.

Is it just me or am I missing something.

Thanks,

Martin

Sounds like Windows with a second network connection active. When talking to a mesh node you should only have the Ethernet connection to the node's LAN port enabled. If your PC's wifi is enabled, disable that critter. -Rusty-

Wifi inteface is either unplugged or disabled. I've tried on different machines with both linux and Windows to no avail. With linux I have to put in the IP address to get to the landing page. Once I navigate to the landing page, navigating to another page that requires a DNS lookup fails. I haven't been using this stuff for a while - I just can't imagine what I changed, it used to work fine. Thanks!
