Hi Greg
Just an update on this situation as the bizarre nature of the router has
uncovered what I think may be a bug in pCp. Well not a bug but something
that could be easily resolved.
As I said the router seemed to be incapable of providing a reserved IP
address (not actually true it transpires but that is irrelevant).
In your script for static IP you assume that the gateway is a nameserver
relay and here the router most definitely doesn't do that. So we have an
invalid nameserver unless we do the hack mentioned above.
Having no nameserver at boot causes a couple of issues - obviously the
Pi can't resolve the location of mysqueezebox.com etc but more crucially
it can't use ntp to get a correct time.
I suggest that a very quick fix in later releases of pCp would be to
substitute 8.8.8.8 for the nameserver gateway address in your static IP
script.
On an aside this is the first domestic router I have ever come across
that doesn't do DNS relay. I have been working in this field for 17
years. A Ubee DVW326. Having said that no doubt someone will tell me it
does do DNS relay but I can't see where. It gives the ISP DNS servers
directly to DHCP clients.
