RBK753 DNS Setting greyed out

Hi, I have a Orbi RBK753 mesh wifi system, I recently noticed the DNS setting is greyed out, and I am no longer able to use my NAS as my DNS server. I have tried to reboot the router and disable the parent control, but neither helps. The firmware version is V4.6.5.14_2.0.54. Is there anything I can do?

  • Are you running it in access point mode? 

    Got a screensnip? 

    Are you using armor?

      Thank you for your reply!

       

      It is not in AP mode. Armor and parental control are disabled. Screen shot is attached. You can see the DNS setup is grey-out, the router MAC address is also not able to be changed

  • Be sure Armor or Smart Parental Controls are not enabled.
