Over the last 3 years or so I have used dnsmasq as a recursive DNS server within my home network. Using the below settings and the DHCP service within my SOHO router to assign IP address's and the DNS address to my dnsmasq server.
This has worked great with just about any device tossed on my network including Apple devices, windows machines, android phones/tablets, and a PS3. Recently I purchased a PS4 and when it utilizes the dnsmasq service no internet applications can connect (netflex, vue, browser, youtube, nothing) In order to get my PS4 to connect to the internet I have to either stop the dnsmasq service & reboot my PS4 or manually configured another DNS server under the PS4's networking settings.
DNS addresses assigned by DHCP service on SOHO router
Primary 192.168.1.31 (dnsmasq server)
Secondary 8.8.8.8 (Google public dns)
dnsmasq.conf
hosts
Any help would be great!
