While it's great that we can designate our own DNS servers on the routers, instead of just using the ones provided by our ISPs, it would be even better if you could integrate DNS-over-TLS and/or DNS-over-HTTPS into the firmware. This would allow us to query DNS servers (e.g., Cloudflare's 1.1.1.1 or Google's 8.8.8.8) without our ISPs being able to monitor our requests, giving us confidentiality from our ISPs and anyone along the path between our LAN and the DNS server; without our requests being able to be changed, ensuring integrity in the replies; and without having to run a separate service or piece of hardware on our networks for this purpose, increasing availability, at least from a certain perspective, as not everyone has the resources or ability to run their own local DNS server capable of using one of these two standards.

- Please add this to R9000 firmware
- This is a feature that would cause me to replace my Orbi setup with something newer from Netgear. Please add it!
- This would be a great feature to have on my R7000
I would also like this feature implemented, asap, for my xr500.
Agreed. This is needed.
Adding another voice to this feature request. Having support for DNS-over-HTTPS and/or DNS-over-TLS natively in the router would be a great benefit to have in a nighthawk router (R7800 in my case).
Adding DoH (DNS over https) is a must. Orbi routers are a premium product and must have a robust features. i would be more than willing to pay $10 - $15 to be enable DoH on my Orbi.
Yes please what are they waiting for ? Even some really cheap router have this feature! Even Google router have DoH or DoT and they cannot care less about your privacy. It's crazy that the latest Orbi Router with Wifi 6 are selling over $1000 for a 3 pack and they don't have this. This was requested already over two yers ago and there no answer at all from Netgear!
PLEASE IMPLEMENT THIS FEATURE!!!!
Ditto! DoH would be great.
For Orbi home routers, add my vote for DoH (preferred). DoT would be my 2nd choice
