You may need to factory reset the router and setup from scratch. If you do, be sure to not enable Armor or SPC.

I want to setup Adguard on my raspberry pi but for that to work you need to point the router's DNS address to the pi. When i go into the router to change the internet setup I can change the addresses for the Internet IP Address however when I set the DNS to Use these DNS servers the address lines stay greyed out.
I turned off parental controls and the A Security functions and set the PI's static IP on the client and removed the static from the router thinking those were the problem with no luck. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!!
