nameserver entries on 2G (Edge) fail to serve DNS. #35

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago
What steps will reproduce the problem?
1.  I tried tethering on a 2G (Edge) network.  The name servers
given by DHCP (10.57.158.105, 136) will not answer ping and appearantly
will not serve DNS either.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
0.94-pre6

Please provide any additional information below.

Perhaps a configuration option to use a specific DNS or open-dns
could help work around this easier?

Please check the network-setting on your client-pc. It looks to me that the dns 
is
statically configured (10.x.x.x is a private address) and I'm 100% sure that 
this
address is not coming from the dhcp-server which is running on the phone!

The phone acts as dhcp and dns-server (forwarder) ... if you type "ipconfig 
/all" (on
client pc) you should get something similar to this:

IPv4 Address. . . . . . . . . . . : 192.168.2.100
Subnet Mask . . . . . . . . . . . : 255.255.255.0
Default Gateway . . . . . . . . . : 192.168.2.254

DNS Servers . . . . . . . . . . . : 192.168.2.254
