@MAM59 , thanks, no actually. ;) After losing a fair amount of hair I decided to go through the configs one by one and lo and behold, I observed that - for whatever reason - the NTP configuration I thought I saved, was not there. So, my server configured with the right time zone, but wrong clock was running out of sync and I hadn’t noticed it. This caused DHCP to behave unlike what I expected. To be in sync or not to be in sync. So that was one. The other one I hadn’t mentioned, where the dns did not resolve, I solved by removing the static IP and relying on static assignment via dhcp entirely. It seems unraid doesn’t register with dhcp when configured with a static IP… or I might yet have done something else wrong… 😑 Anyway, it’s running now. I’d like to try LACP, but I’m a wee bit scared I re-enter the void 😂.
