Exceptions on 8120 over wifi

New postby agnagey on Wed May 13, 2009 7:18 am

8120 v4.3.0.115 on tmo
I have just started having an issue where none of my podcasts update while at home on wifi. (it is set to only update via wifi.) If I restart the phone and podtrapper it will have no problems downloading any of the podcasts. Last night I copied this log after it failed an attempt and emailed it to myself so I could read it on a larger screen. Right after I sent the email the podcast in question downloaded with no problem, however other podcasts would not.

The pertinent line is this:
Exception caught doDownload: Exception caught: net.rim.device.cldc.io.dns.DNSException/Bad DNS Address


I haven't figured out why it happens, but sometimes the bb gets into a state where it has trouble performing DNS lookups. It usually ends up resolving itself, but you can force it by restarting the berry or the router or both (I've had reports of different combinations of those working for different people).

Wish I had a better answer, but this one is in the OS so I can't debug and figure out why it's happening...
