Hi,

I'm new to NZBGet and have successfully installed it and connected / downloaded to my news server on Windows10 PC. However, on the same network, I also installed installed it on my rooted Android 5.0 TV Box connected via DHCP / ethernet with the same settings as my Win10 setup but get the following error message:

"Connection Test Failed

Could not resolve hostname NEWS.USENETSERVER.COM: ErrNo 7, No address associated with hostname"

Everything else is working in the Android box, i.e. Google Play, Chrome, etc.

Any idea what this error message is about? I was able to set it up on Windows but not on Android.

Here is my setup from the News-Servers page of the NZBGet portal.

Server1.Active YES
Server1.Name Usenet
Server1.Level 0
Server1.Optional No
Server1.Group 0
Server1.Host NEWS.USENETSERVER.COM
Server1.Port 563
Server1.Username *********
Server1.Password *********
Server1.JoinGroup No
Server1.Encryption Yes
Server1.Cipher blank
Server1.Connections 10
Server1.Retention 0
Server1.IpVersion Auto
Server1.Notes blank

Thanks in advance for any advice!
