Note
Setting up a static IP address to configure a DNS server may prevent you from connecting to some public Wi-Fi networks that use captive portals — these are the web pages some wireless networks employ to let users log in and use their services.
If you are experiencing connectivity issues related to captive portals:
- Remove the static IP addresses from the device.
- Connect to the Wi-Fi network.
- Once the connection has been established, re-add the static IP addresses.
