Hi. I have a 2860 router and struggling to get all my LAN clients to point to OpenDNS servers. I want the router to do this. On the LAN DHCP page, I have set the OpenDNS servers addresses.However, each client is by-passing these DNS requests and using the BT one instead. I though I had all this set up. Why am I struggling! Help please!

after set the new dns go at LAN >> General Setup and tick "Force router to use "DNS server IP address" settings specified in Lan 1 etc"

Thanks! Really was that simple! Thought I`d be into rules, port forwarding etc....ha ha!

Thanks ... once you using it more will learn it better

Ok...so the clients are now getting the OpenDNS correctly, but they are able to change their client DNS entries to, for examples Google`s at 8.8.8.8. Rather than lock down the clients, how is this blocked on the router?

Hi
I`m sure this can be achieved but struggling to make it happen.
So far, I`ve managed to get all client PC`s pointing to the OpenDNS server - fine and dandy!

But. The users can change to Google DNS servers and by pass OpenDNS on the router.

I`ve blocked port 53 on the router but this blocks all access to any web page :o
I`ve had an attempt at redirecting all the requests from port 53 on the LAN, to point to OpenDNS servers on the WAN, but this doesn`t appear to work either...i.e. they can still access unwanted, blocked material. I`ve rebooted, flushed DNS, waited 15 mins or so, cleared browser settings etc, but still can`t achieve my goal.
Can anyone walk me through the settings? Thanks
