Hello List, I am using version 3.7.1 on Android 13, even tho I have noticed this behavior in earlier versions as well. The VPN server running on a Debian box, it pushes the default route and DNS servers to Android. This DNS server is a dnsmasq on that server which routes the requests (local ones with .lan extension) to the local DNS server, the rest to public servers. I noticed that many times after connecting this just don't work, the lan addresses stay unresolvable, I reconnect again and DNS works (until next reconnect). Anyone seen this behavior? Any workaround for it? I would be ok using dnsmasq on Android directly or even hosts file but sadly this cannot be done on unrooted phone :/ Thanks
