[Cerowrt-devel] Strange auto configured DNS address

[William Katsak]

One more piece of info about this...it is also happening when there is
no explicitly configured IPv6 connection in the router...e.g. fresh
firmware flash.

I haven't had time to look deeper into the IPv6 stuff on Cero yet though.

However, when I turn on IPV6 on my Mac, it picks up two DNS addresses: the cero router IPV4 address, and for some reason, the link-local address that is shared by se00 and sw00. This address is not routable from the Mac, so the machine randomly hangs on name resolution because it sometimes tries to hit that address.
