BDS Connection Failure on Domain
Just encountered one of the strangest things with Bedrock Dedicated Server
Most of my client devices fail to connect (Unable to connect to world) using my subdomain
lan.third.lvldomain.io, but connect fine using the numerical IP 192.168.xxx.xxx (the xxx.xxx changes every reboot unfortunately so my LAN IP is put through DDNS). The strange part is on the domain, while the connection fails, the MOTD and ping successfully show, indicating that the domain works and has the correct A record (this can be confirmed with all other services on my server like SSH, HTTPS, etc)
Not sure what is going on here, and I'd be nice to be able to have a working connection over IPv4 LAN without entering the inconsistent address every weekly play session with the family4 Replies

Why not just give a static internal ip?
Unfortunately not possible since my network runs like this under a single bridge
5G Phone --> Linux Server --> Router
I used to have a NAT on the Linux server before the router, which gave it a static IP, but made IPv6 not work, which was unacceptable to me. Static IP doesn't work with this bridge thing because Android tethering resets the subnet every single time you start tethering. It's literally a random 192.168.xxx.xxx
Welp I think I found the problem
DNS got reset back to my ISP's default when I switched my setup to a bridge
Works with the correct DNS set now
