Connection complete but DNS problem

Post by virtuaboy » Sat May 19, 2018 12:59 pm

Hi all,

I just configured a DNS server using Road warrior (https://github.com/Nyr/openvpn-install) on my debian serveur and it works very good on my Galaxy S8.

I'm trying to configure client on my Xiaomi mi box to user Molotov TV (France channels) and i received this error :

"Impossible d'ajouter le serveur DNS "127.0.0.1", rejetés par le système: Bad adress"

Could be translate by : Cannot add DNS server "127.0.0.1", Rejected by system : Bad adress

What did i made wrong here ?

Thanks in advance for helping :)

are you configuring Android Connect on the Xiaomi Mi box? Can you share the configs you are using? It seems android does not like you setting 127.0.0.1 as DNS. Is the DNS really running on the xiaomi mi box? (This is what using 127.0.0.1 means..)
