Setting up DNS when IP is provided by ISP
My ISP do not let me the option to get a static IP adress so I have to select "IP provided by ISP" in internet V4 configuration. The issue on my RAX10 is that I cannot choose my DNS and am forced to ...
So reset the router and set up from scratch. This time do not enable Armor or Parental controls, then go in and see if you can change to custom DNS on the routers web page.

I don’t think it is a true statement for Smart Parental Control because when I look at the DNS ipv4 in the Internet setting of the nighthawk app I see my ISP dns for ipv4. I can change the ipv6 DNS though on the router webpage.
Maybe but before changing all my configuration I would prefer to have the insurance it will work (from someone with dynamic IP).
You can back up your router configuration before factory resetting the router. So you can go back to the configuration if it doesn't work.
Default settings are Armor and SPC are disabled so DNS would be configurable by the user IF they don't enabled them.
