Intermittent DNS

[thomasps]

I'm having issues with intermittent DNS in my Amahi (my router DHCP server is off). When I type the IP address, for instance:
http://192.168.1.1
I get to the Amahi dashboard nearly instantly

When I type:
http://hda

It often times out or requires multiple refreshes.

I'm not sure where to start trouble shooting: router or Amahi?

If your having network issues, recommend you consult the troubleshooting page in the wiki.

Thanks, that was a helpful guide, though it did not help me solve the problem. Here's the log from the troubleshooting guide:

You are not using IPV6 are you in your network? Amahi does not work with it.

I have a feeling I am... When I run a WHOIS I get an IPv6... How can I check and what causes this: router or something I messed up in Amahi?

Thanks for your help.

[thomasps]

I think I fixed it!

[bigfoot65]

I would imagine it's your router.

You said you think you fixed it, so can we close this thread now?
