In consideration of those facts you can't blame neither Arch nor the DSL router. The box is like seven years old and its dnsmasq accordingly outdated, but I didn't expect any incompatibilities with DHCP implementations.Īrchlinux seems to work fine with other dhcp servers, but my DSL router seems to work with other clients (Ubuntu, SuSE, a Samsung laser printer, a Nokia Smartphone and a Synology NAS are known to work), too. So: Only the combination of my DSL router box (AVM Fritzbox 7170) and Archlinux doesn't work, which explains why I am the only one who experiences those problems. enable and disable the FRITZBox answering machine and call diversions. This way you can check calls, voice messages, and other events.
I set up a dnsmasq at another machine, it works! With MyFRITZApp for Android you have easy and secure access to your FRITZBox and your home network at home or on the go. Setting the hostname in /etc/nf ('hostname testname') didn't help Removing lease files in both /var/lib/dhcpcd/* and /var/lib/dhclient/* didn't help
