For now, I'd settle for bypassing midco's router.
Would turning off dynamic DNS help?
I expect I'd have to tell something what DNS server to use.
The router is labeled ARRIS and is at 192.168.0.1 .
Anyone else stuck with it?
I don't recall what issue you're trying to resolve. However, if you
want your Fedora system
to use a different DNS server/service than your router is supplying
via DHCP it is easy to accomplish.
If you're using the NetworkManager GUI you can select a "Method" of
"Automatic (Addresses Only)".
This will result in your system getting its IP address assignment from
the router as it normally
would. But, you'd manually enter the DNS server you want to use.
Examples of public DNS servers are....
Cloudflare: 1.1.1.1 and 1.0.0.1
Google: 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4
Then, assuming your ISP doesn't block using them, you'd be using a
public DNS server.
Just further to this check the wifi settings in your router, they may
let you turn off using your ISP's dns servers and hard code your own
servers using the address supplied by Ed. That way you can change what
dns servers you are using without having to change anything in Fedora.
