N600 C3700 Modem/Router settings in Router not routing via OpenDns network per configuration

The dns settings in the router have been set to:   

208.67.222.222

208.67.220.220

208.67.222.220

 

Problem is that any device useing router should be routed through these settings but it’s not working.  I’m stumped.

    How are you determinine that your connected devices are not being routed thru these DNS addresses? 

     

    All DNS seen on the LAN side will have a 192.168.0.1 address probably and thus will be routed thru the C3700 and the DNS set there...

      Solved.  Using the Genie App, I setup Parental Controls option and from there it connected to to my OpenDns account.  Within the app I rebooted the Router and now all my devices are using OpenDns.  Thanks for your help.
