Seeing the same problem here. mDNS works fine on my 8266 boards (wemos, sonoff) but the ESP32 boards will neither respond to mDNS queries nor resolve other addresses, e.g. HA and MQTT.

arthurkomatsu commented 2 years ago

I have run into this issue today as well.

The same problem: [W][mqtt:210]: Couldn't resolve IP address for 'mydomain.ddns.net'! [W][mqtt:195]: Error resolving MQTT broker IP address: -6

Platform ESP32 The same config on esp32 tasmota devices working perfect but for some reason on esphome not

@Bobsonkz that's a different issue. That's not an mdns address.

@Bobsonkz that's a different issue. That's not an mdns address.

So any hint to my problem? For me it is similar this person want to use domain name insted of IP address.

I have a working system, esp32 boards on remote location with use NOIP for connection. All work on tasamta devices but not in esphome.

You problem is off-topic for this issue. You aren't using mdns. Come ask on the esphome discord server.
