mdns stop working/resolving hostname.local after ~2.5 minutes after boot #561

Is there any fix of this?

On what OS? On windows 10+ the builtin mdns is pretty strange. I disabled it and installed bonjour.

Any OS. IOS, linux, macos, etc. Bonjour on windows doesn't help.

I don't see any problems like you describe using 3.2.47.alpha and windows 10 arduino IDE 1.8.57.0. Haven't tried other versions since 3.2.47 is working for me. But as I said with windows native MDNS, the host name would come and go. But using bonjour I see host name consistently. How are you seeing the host name disappear, using Arduino IDE, or MDNS browser. I think I saw a post about Arduino IDE 2.0 having trouble with MDNS. I am using IDE version 1.8.57.0 but I have noticed by watching the MDNS browser, that if IDE is launched before esp8266 is rebooted that a restart of IDE is needed to pick up the host name. Might be if I was more patient it would appear after some time, but once I figured out restarting IDE made it come up right away I just started restarting after seeing host name in MDNS browser.
