GS716 v3 DNS query

Got the above switch and using it as a dumb switch, so currnertly not using any of the VLANs etc.

Want to set an alternative DNS and the supplied router from Virgin Media does not support this.

Tried to follow the instructions in the GS716 manual but go nowhere, screens are different.

Just want ot point to192.168.0.198 which is a Raspberry Pi runnig pihole for ad blocking purposes. 

Is this possible ?

 

Model: GS716Tv3|ProSafe 16 ports Gigabit Smart switch

Hi qwakuk,

 

This GS716Tv3 does support DNS but as a client or to allow the switch to send DNS queries. Maybe you have a different model?
