randle Posted November 27, 2013 Posted November 27, 2013 I have an Android tablet that I've connected to the wireless here which has obtained an IP address through DHCP and through this I would expect it to be able to use DNS to resolve hostnames etc. Doesn't look to be the case and have found information about known issues with Android devices don't use the DNS search path provided by DHCP and as a result, only FQDN are resolved. This was information given back in 2011 and would have hoped this no longer to be the case but still appears that DNS isn't being resolved. Am I missing the obvious?
mdench Posted November 27, 2013 Posted November 27, 2013 I don't think so unfortunately have this issue still using my galaxy mega on latest release. Its a pain in the *** so have to carry my iPad just incase I need to use our internal sites out and about
randle Posted November 28, 2013 Author Posted November 28, 2013 Ah well. Thanks for confirming this. Strange how it's happy to resolve an upstream proxy host record though!!
