I've just tried it, before I commit this reply, and "" on the address above *does* respond to ping. When I tried this yesterday, neither responded to ping. Maybe someone could do a DNS lookup for these domains from a system that's not behind DNS server with these modified addresses. They don't respond to pings, but that's nothing unusual, so not conclusive evidence that they're actually off line. I found these IP addresses listed for *almost* these domain names they had ".dyn" embedded within them. I don't know what's happened to my spinning circle, because I haven't dared close the "Simple Browser" window to try to find the BBID dialogue. There's no guarantee, of course, that the pop-up won't come back.Which exact domain did you associate with which exact address ? Thanks in advanceĬlose, then. This may not match your use of the Playbook, but it might be helpful to some. There's no guarantee, of course, that the pop-up won't come back. ![]() Now, 21 hours later, I still have my PV monitor on the screen and no pop-up visible. Presumably, the little green wheel is still going round somewhere. I could still see my "PV" page behind, so I tapped it and it came to the front. I checked network traffic and there was no additional activity going on. I left it for an hour or so with it doing that, with the pop-up on top. Next time I tried to authenticate the Playbook, the little green wheel just kept on turning. Well, there appeared to be loads associated with "" - note the "dyn" - so I chose one of them and popped it into the router. The next step was to look up the address for the server. I dismissed it, but it came back, of course. ![]() That made no difference I still saw the network error message on the pop-up. So I edited the DNS on my router to point it to localhost (127.0.0.0). From the logs, I noticed that the Playbook was going to "" when I was trying to authenticate. "What if I tinker with the DNS in my router?", I thought. Until yesterday, I had escaped these pop-ups, then they started. I use "Simple Browser" in full-screen, headless mode and the monitor's HTML page fills the screen. I use a Playbook as the output screen for a system than monitors the PV panels on our roof and it's been brilliant for that purpose.
