Hi,

I am getting this one 1-3 times every day. Its not really bothering me other than me seeing it in the logs.

It is always around 6 errors within a 15 minute time span. (like clockwork)

Someone has any idea?

I dont think it is the internet connection, as I personally have not experienced any downtime within the last weeks. But how to log if the internet is down on the Rpi?

Well, maker needs an internet connection to recheck the lease regularly. “Connection timed out” usually means the internet connection didn’t work at that moment.

I guess it’s that simple, will try to ping 8.8.8.8 and store to file for a while
