DNS resolution
In Streaming Client the DNS resolution is performed at every stream reconnection, while in Exstreamer standard FW the DNS resolution is performed only at boot up. If the numeric IP of the DNS is changing then you will have to reboot the device if running standard FW.
In order to perform DNS resolution, a DNS Server needs to be defined. This is done automatically when using DHCP, but if you use static IP then also DNS Server IP address has to be defined in the Network Setting page of the WEB User Interface.
