Unfortunately I was not able to find an online manual for that router model as I was interested to see how to set the domain name and where to check the domain name in your router.
Alternatively I checked if it is possible to get the domain name and to see what domain name is set by DHCP on an android.
Using the command:
adb shell dumpsys wifi
via a USB debug session it is possible to get this information. But I do not know if spending the effort at the end really will help.
This entry shows “Domains: null” and the IP address range 192.168.1.0/24 seems not to match with the IP addresses that are shown in the wireshark screenshot: 192.168.1.22 vs. 192.168.137.146
As far as I understand several internet articles the hotspot sharing ( ICS: internet connection sharing ) could be the reason for the domain mshome.net. It would be interesting to see a wireshark network trace without using the PC as hotspot for your phone.
What do the following commands return if execute them in a command window on your PC:
can u explain to me a little more? I’m not very familiar with this
in the router’s site I didnt see an option to do something similar to what u wrote but maybe I dont know enough
The windows system seems not to be configured to use a local DNS server and the wireshark snippet shows that mDNS service is used to resolve the name to it’s related IP address.
Using the PC as hotspot has influence on the domain name that is being used. As long as you do not intend to always use your PC as hotspot for your android device the results are not comparable.
What you could try is to use tpacketcapture to caputure the network traffic of your phone. Save it and analyse the capture packets with wireshark on a PC.
that app didnt work really well for me. ill try some others, anyway I wont be nea a PC in the next couple of days unfortunately. Thanks for all the help!
