Hello and thanks for getting back to me. So, after the initial enthousiasm I am back to square one…one step forward, two steps back huh?
Anyway, after yesterday’s “solution” it went all down the drain as soon as I changed a channel and since then I can’t get the simple client to work again (just to be sure; if I go back to the minix firmware/android with kodi I can get it, no problems there)
To answer your questions:
- yes the box uses dhcp (but I have a fixed internal IP for the box anyway, so put it in manually for testing purposes -> no difference)
- The content of the /etc/resolv.conf
- /etc/host.conf
- a simple ping domainname to the url in question does not work, 100% packetloss. I can do pings to other domains without a problem
Do you have any idea why this became a problem overnight? I have been using Coreelec for a couple of months now without a problem and then all of a sudden this? Also, I can’t understand why this isn’t a problem when I use Kodi (also Leia) through the minix firmware/android.
And to conclude; it worked yesterday uninterupted for hours, until I changed the channel I was watching.
Can’t find the consistency in this problem…but that is 100% me 
Thanks again for reaching out and I hope you (or anyone else) can point me in a direction to further troubleshoot this.
