URL only resolves by IP Address

So forgive me if this is a dumb question. I am able to access everything on my HA via “home.mydomain.com” but AD4. I can, however, access HA via the IP address. I’m just wondering what is happening that is causing this?

the config is even set to “url: https://home.mydomain.com:5050” but it will pull up in a browser when I type the URL… again, the IP works though.

Any help is appreciated.

I assume you are trying to do this from your LAN (if not please let me know). If you type $ping home.mydomain.com do the replies come from the internal LAN address or your external (ISP provided) IP address?

They come from my LAN… I have a DNS record that resolves LAN internally and WAN when I’m outside the network.
