Second DNS Server to set!

Using /e/OS Settings
,
1

Hi everyone,

i have a NextCloudPi running with DNS Loopback in my homenet.

the iPhone Client can handle 2 manual DNS Servers in the Config, /e/ can handle only one!

So, if i went out of my homenet (Wifi) i have errors oft syncing my device and no Internet. I must turn DNS back to providers choice then it goes on.

Is there no Option to configure that?

Greetings

Edit: i see it there was a github issue for this (i have a Gigaset GS 290 Machine)…

Hi,

Didn’t succeed, either :frowning:

Maybe using WiFi static IP (advanced AP settings) ?

Also, in NextCloudPi can you “spoof” your phone’s DNS server IP (let’s say 9.9.9.9) using some kind of S-NAT ?
Something like (s)9.9.9.9 -> (d)192.168.1.1.
(may not work if using DNSSec).

No, that is not working for me…sry

So, there’s no way OOTB.

We may try to rely on an add-on app to automate switching settings.
Tasker can do the job, but it’s a paid application, only from Google PlayStore or Patreon subscription :frowning:

I found Easer could launch necessary commands, currently trying it …

Hi,
i want a OotB Function of this Settings. Is this such an big programming problem?
On GitLab this “Issue” is more than 1 year old. (@Manoj)

My solution for this problem is to switch DNS manually on/off. If i in my Home WiFi i switch DNS to my Home DNS Server with intern IP. If i went out i switch on to the Providers DNS (Here i want to use automaticly an good privacy DNS Service i chosse by myself).
