RAX-50 Router - OpenDNS Updater 2.2.1 Connection Failure

Purchased AX as replacement for Older Netgear AC router
-Setup Router by loading firware .chk files manually
-Current Version is V1.0.2.94_2.0.58
-After update performed Router Hardware reset.


Using udater on windiws PC to refresh Dynamic isp router ip

OpenDNS Updater 2.2.1 Reports Looks like there's no internet connectivity.
Flushed dns on pc.
Rebooted pc.
OpenDNS clear to work through Windows PC Firewall.


OpenDNS Site setup checks reports: Welcome to OpenDNS once it's server ip's are added to router setup.

Which mean it ready to go.


In router |Advanced | Setup | Internet Setup
Internet IP Address = Get Dynamically for ISP
Domain Nsme Server (DNS) Address = Use These DNS Servers
Pri: 208.67.222.222
Sec: 208.67.220.220
Router MAC Address = Use Default Address

 

Anyone else having this issue?
Help will be greatly appreciated. At the moment I have a unprotected network..

Problem Solved!

At least on the wifi nic card.

Found this from user (a santinelli ) on OpenDNS forum.

The problem appears to be related to ipv6.

Solution:

 -Open wifi nic card properties.

 -Open ethernet nic card properties.

 -Removed check mark in use ipv6.

 -Flushed PC's dns.

 -Rebooted PC.

 -Rebooted Router.

 -OpenDNS updater 2.2.1  looks normal.

 -Looks like no iternet connectivity. msg is gone.

Pardon the double pic post  will test ethernet nic also

Sort of....OpenDns works sopratically with their test site to simulate a bad site.

 

Just tht Updater will not work to auto update when isp's Dynamic ip changes.

Login into OpenDNS and manually updating the isp ip will produce some blocking.

Test with ethernet nic appears to be ok.

Will try to attach load photo if possible.
