This server will allow you to connect to Insignia when your Internet Service Provider does not work with custom DNS.

Setup

The setup process does not differ from what is shown at https://insignia.live/connect except for the values to enter in your custom DNS settings.

First, make sure that your console is connected to the same network as this computer.

Please submit any issues either via our Discord server, or Insignia support.

Running on Windows:

Run the .exe provided in this release. You may have to click past a warning from Windows SmartScreen (as it sometimes turns its nose up at applications bundled by Nuitka) or your firewall (as it needs to listen for DNS requests).

Running on anything else:

Required packages are installable with the following command:

sudo python3 -m pip install -r requirements.txt

Required Python version: 3.6+, tested with 3.9.9

sudo python3 insigniaDNS.py

Note: python3 is assumed to be the name of your python binary, if it is not then it will need to be substituted with the name and/or path of your binary.
