Need help with dns configuration

[rlcronin]

I simply want my N66U to hand out only the router's address (192.168.1.1) as the DNS server to DHCP clients and then to use the two OpenDNS servers to complete queries rather than my ISP's two servers. How do I do this, exactly? There doesn't seem to be a way to make it happen via the web interface. I presume I need to (somehow) meddle with the dnsmasq configuration. I tried reading the dnsmasq man page, but its way too detailed to wade through. Can anyone help simplify it for me, please? I'm running the latest Merlin build 3.0.0.4.374.34. Thanks ...

WAN page, tell it to not automatically connect to your ISP DNS, then a pair of DNS fields will appear.

Aha! <blush> Thank you. Never tried that.
