OBI Offline

<< < (2/2)

It says:  "Welcome to..." 

All is well.  Believe me, the issue was entirely with DNS.

The only thing the Obi needed to go online was:
DNSSERVER1   75.75.75.75
DNSSERVER2   75.75.76.76
Instead of:
DNSSERVER1   192.168.1.1
DNSSERVER2   empty

It would probably also have worked if I had reserved the fixed IP to the OBI's MAC in the router and set the Obi to use DHCP.  (The way I configure my ROKUs.)

SteveInWA:
This is what we call a "self-inflicted beat-down".  If only you had left things alone, and not messed with a static IP address and DNS, it would have simply worked.

Now, if you want to use a better DNS, I suggest using Google's high-performance DNS, at 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4  You can enter that in your router, so that all of your attached devices simply use that DNS.
