Hm, sounds like very strange way of not handing out DHCP leases. This is
definitely a first for ConnMan, congratulations! Isn't this funny, the
expected use cases are for DHCP updating DNS information but sabotaged
by this kind of interesting network setup ;-)

There of course aren't any instructions from the ISP not to send
hostnames on the network? Do you have a tcpdump of the exchange to
share?

How does a normal Windows machine cope with this? Any possibilities to
get a packet dump and check how those machines work as sending a host
name is quite a normal operation...

Cheers,
