How to change DNS on Jio Fibre router?

[pradeep881]

Apparently, they removed the WAN option and I can't seem to find any way to change the DNS. Is anyone aware of how to do it?

Type wan in the search box at the top right and you will see the settings. They are just hidden, not removed.

What about IPv6 configuration? The option to change DNS isn't there

If it's not too late, what i changed it using static setting ( as it was giving 2 options - 1. DHCP without DNS updation form 2. Static IP option with static IP as well as DNS form). You can get existing IPv6,gateway from status page and enter same in static option. In DNS setting i used google's DNS.

My reason for changing DNS - While network scan in router i was getting warnings that some domains have been hijacked and DNS might be vulnerable. Default setting was to use Jio's DNS server.

@ptw now restart your router and check wan ipv6 settings.

dont change wan side only change lan side and reconnect the devices, they will start using the dns you specified for both ipv4 and ipv6. Im using pihole and it works flawlessly.
