AdGuard DNS added to an AX8 router

I recently upgraded my R6700 Nighthawk router to the new AX8. Love it.

I'm having one difficulty with it. My old router I had AdGuard DNS address added to it to block ads on all the devices on that wireless network. With the new AX8, I'm not sure where to enter the DNS figures into OR if I should be using the IPv4 or the IPv6 set.

I'm oldish, and suprised I was able to get it on the R6700, but the new AX8 is a little more sophisticated.

I could use a tech hand please.

IPv4  94.140.14.14   94.140.15.15      IPv6  2a10:50c0::ad1:ff   2a10:50c0::ad2:ff

 

 

Thanks in advance!
