Override WAN DNS provided by wireless carrier on IR611

Hello,

We're looking to test out some routing changes and we need the ability to replace the WAN-provided DNS primary/secondary IPs with our own. I've tried using the router's portal (it's an IR611) but that doesn't seem to do the trick. Is there a way to do this? Thoughts?


Thanks,

Andrew

let me explain to you how the DNS service works on our router.

Normally, the router will get the DNS server address for your Carrier, and it's the priority.

Check on Status->Network Connection.

If you add the DNS server manually, Services->DNS

Check on Status->log, the priority becomes the ones you just configure.

and you may notice the last one 8.8.8.8, it's the Google DNS server written in our router in case all above are expired.
