When I unplug my router from the ISP modem…
- HA continues to work offline, via local desktop browser pointed at static IP address.
- VPE works for about 1 minutes.
- After which VPE no longer communicates with local HA, and gives me the "Blue ring of death."
- reconnecting the router to the modem resolves the issue.
Do I need a local DNS even though my HA server has a static IP and the router's DHCP server is still working?
