Greetings,

I want my system to get it's dns from the router, I have a /etc/resolv.conf file with the router's ip, /etc/dhcpcd.conf has no resolve entry.
afaiu, that should cause the file to be auto regenerated every dhcp correct? note that I'm not using a systemd based init setup.
on my other systems (libreelec, alpine and debian), the file is auto regenerated.

any ideas what can be the issue?

Compare the options passed to the DHCP client on the working and non-working systems. Check that /etc/conf.d/net does not disable taking DNS from the DHCP server.

my other systems are systemd based, hard to compare

dhcpcd.conf needs this for correct resolv.conf population:
Code:
option domain_name_servers, domain_name, domain_search


Other than, it's what command line options.
As you've noted, you've disabled resolv.conf population for br0 interface.

I see, so I need to remove that entry, ok thanks!
