Upgraded my RBR750 Firmware yesterday to V4.6.5.14 and it deaulted my DNS to the ISP defaults. I tried to change the DNS to 1.1.1.1 and the buttons are greyed out. If I highlight the "Does your Internet COnnection require a login?" and put "YES" it will allow me to change the DNS address. My ISP however does not require a login and this is a problem. Can anyone let me know if this is also an issue for them and how to fix it or is this just another NG fix and break session?
I do not have Parental Controls turned on. I did however fix my issue. I reset the entire router to factory defaults for the sixth time and it finally worked. It is very concerning that most of the time when Netgear does an update of firmware it requires the end user to jump through hoops to make it work. Orbi is a great product however the service generally is sub-par at best. Not what you like to see in an expensive product.
Netgear has set up a community forum specifically for the Orbi AX (WiFi 6) products. Most of the people who watch that forum are more likely to have experience with Orbi AX and know how to work it better than those of us who follow this "general Orbi" forum. Might be more likely to find someone who has a solution if the question is posted there: https://community.netgear.com/t5/Orbi-AX/bd-p/en-home-orbi-ax
Is Armor or Smart Parental Controls enabled on the RBR?
