    it was posed as a question, so is your response an assumption or a matter of fact?

    apparently merlin has an option to suppress the router's address as a DNS server, so looks like that will be the route to take. i assume i can install merlin over the top of the existing firmware and not lose any of the existing configuration?

    you're looking at the WAN settings page, not the LAN DHCP settings page. i'm trying to server the DNS address via DHCP, not have it applied on the WAN connection.

    router recommendations

    if you do it via the WAN page then you don't get "per client" reporting, so is essentially useless to see what clients are worse than others. you do realise though that having an "alternate" DNS address means that it's possible for clients to no use pi-hole, as the other of the DNS servers makes...

    edimax wifi adaptor can't see networks

    i've also tried enabling some of the stuff that was previously disabled and still no luck. these are now my complete wifi settings. i expect the edimax to only connect to 2.4Ghz.

    edimax wifi adaptor can't see networks

    protected management framaes are already disabled. would disabling HE frame support mean that AX wifi would be disabled completely? as that would not be a good outcome to have to lose AX wifi to let this device connect. it worked fine on my Unifi Access points (albeit they weren't AX), so not...

    looks like someone else (2 years ago) enquired about the same problem.

    192.168.50.1 is indeed the IP of the router, but the router doesn't give the option of adding a second DNS IP address. however, even if that option was there it should be left blank, as if you had a second DNS server then any client will connect to whatever one responds first, and in my...

    edimax wifi adaptor can't see networks

    RT-AX88U, main WIFI combined 2.4/5, guest wifi 2.4 only. all devices picking up WIFI ok, except for 1 which uses an edimac b/g/n usb adapter, it doesn't see any of my networks. 2.4 is on channel 7 so can't see an obvious reason why the edimax can't see any of me networks?

    right, so i've got everything configured and running, however that DNS server is still causing a problem. the DHCP server still appears to be giving out 2 DNS server IP addresses, even though i've told it to only serve 1. the 192.168.50.1 address should not be there. any ideas? I'm running...

    see, initially it was the WAN dns settings i changed, applied, renew etc. but the clients remained reported 196.168.50.1 as the DNS on the unifi this ws done via the LAN DHCP settings, as i want 192.168.50.2 to be giving out via DHCP as the local DNS server. i believe setting it on the WAN side...

    OK first question, i use Adguard Home as my DNS server for the LAN (hosted locally). I think i found the correct page to set this LAN > DHCP > DNS and WINS Server Setting > 192.168.50.2. Saved and applied. Forced a DHCP renew on the client. however the clients lists two DNS servers 192.168.50.2...

    router recommendations

    does anyone ever have it in a central location? unless they have it plonked in the middle of a room which is in the middle of the house? generally, everyone has there incoming connection on an external wall, and that's usually where the router is going to be. however, the question was more...
