How To Change Dns Settings On Zyxel Router

NR7101 - Change WAN interface ISP DNS?

Noddy

Hullo, I take been asking back up how to do this with little success so far then thought I would pose the question here. Tin anyone aid?

On the NR5101 under Broadband department you could edit the WAN interface and change the DNS to say Google 8.8.viii.eight or Cloudflare i.1.1.1 instead of the default Isp resolver.

On the NR7101 that option is missing.

Thanks.

    Because NR7101 works differently.
    Information technology is based on the fact, that you lot will use it in ipbridge mode, and then the NR7101 won't have  much to manage, and you volition configure your cyberspace on the inside Router.
    Besides the mtu, y'all tin ready in your within Router,defaut MTU is 1500, and autofix based on the connectedness, since NR7101 use dnsmasq and dhcpc.
    Dont think you lot demand to set anything when using ipbridge.
    You would need those setting, if you could use NR7101 as a router, and connect other devices directly to it.
    About the page isbehaviour, i think Router software have most code in common whit other devices, then when it is started fully, you have the options you can actually use.
    Please experience free to enquire if you need more info.

    Here is the section in the NR5101 / NR7101.  If you click "alter" y'all can and then ameliorate the WAN settings.

    Here is what happens on the NR5101.  (Notation the DNS server section, MTU, Encapsulation, all bachelor to edit)

    Now here is the same thing on the NR7101.  Where are all the other options?

    Hi.

    Well yes that sets information technology for your LAN clients via DHCP.  I do not use the Zyxel for this - I use my mesh Orbi units instead.

    However this does not answer the question every bit to why, equally shown in my screenshots, the NR5101 WAN interface options let for IGMP Proxy, MTU, Encapsulation and DNS setting amending under the WAN interface.  The carte du jour items within "Broadband" on the NR7101 shows these headers likewise; yet every bit soon as you click "modify" on the interface - you get a cut down menu.  Where are all the settings?  It is as if they are hidden or been removed.

    What happens if I wish to change the MTU value?  Where is that on the NR7101?

    Thanks.

    Deplorable I did have another question, I've gone to see where IP Passthrough is on the NR7101.  The "Remote Direction" department states... Make sure to enable IP Passthrough in Network Setting > Broadband > Cellular IP Passthrough .

    I accept gone to the location it mentions but I have no "Cellular IP Passthrough card choice?

    Folio 72 of the user guide (section 6.8) besides shows information technology should be there.
