It not a thing I can fix. Your network has something funky that XeLL doesn't like.
If the issue is specific to the JRw/E XeLL version (please compile without it to verify), then you should open issue in that repo. (Octal450/xell-reloaded)

can't open issue on that repo, heard people verify that this doesn't happen on the free60 version because of this patch lwip-tcpip/lwip@1eeb70f please consider compiling your xell with this

I'll check this out and send you a test image shortly. Thanks.

Dang, GitHub doesn't allow issues on forks. Sorry about the confusion.

[Octal450]

Sorry for the delay, been busy with work. This is still on my list.

Free60 lwIP does not include that fix.

But I'll try building with 1.4.1. You can test?

[ghost]

yeah i can test

Any updates?

Similar to the user that created this issue, my consoles freezes during DHCP initialisation. Considering the patch lwip-tcpip/lwip@1eeb70f I temporarily changed my DHCP server settings to only include one DNS server rather than two and the console no longer freezes.

Free60 lwIP does not include that fix.

Isn't the version of IwIP used dependent on the library version installed on the build system? Other than the readme, I don't see anything in the xell-reloaded repository referencing to a specific version of lwip.
