Thank you so much! I have successfully tested this on my main Kindle 4 and it works perfectly - I can now go online and get RSS or test eInk webdev. Note that Kindles (or at least the K4) will refuse LAN-only WiFi connections, and insist on connecting to the WWW. (Similarly, Windows 10's WiFi hotspot requires a connection to the WWW/Microsoft to run, and will not work LAN only or if you have bad internet. Windows 7 and below have no such limitation)

I forked another project before I discovered yours, and added a few hosts I discovered through dnsmasq logging:

Thank you for solving a problem that I have had for almost 2 years! I inquired about this very issue back in Feb 2024, and you were the only person who was able to solve it: https://www.mobileread.com/forums/sh...d.php?t=363431
