the 2 snlookups return the respective text
"i am not an openDNS resolver"
"2.sea"

Familiar situation on my side. I have a buffalo router and one day opendns says you're using it, another day it's says no, you aren't using it. How's that possible!?

hi im a new user of open dns! my prob is i dont know where do i get the needed ip address on add network pls advise thanks a lot :-D

rotblitz, sorry, i didn't want to be rude. And for the number of slots for dns i think yes, i have one more: https://i.minus.com/i1QLMu9TF5dzC.PNG

this is what my router DNS is now http://imgur.com/PcF1l

i have gone through the setup multiple times using the shows DNS and the standard openDNS as shown above ^

also the ISP is comcast
if i set the DNS on computer it works (but this is not a solution)
i need the router to force openDNS for the whole network

status page shows dns as
Primary DNS Server : 208.67.222.123
Secondary DNS Server : 208.67.220.123
Advanced DNS : Disabled

also the firmware is of a newer version (3.x) than the example (2.x)

if it helps the router is fed via Tx100 cat5 from a Comcast cable modem

"i disabled DNS relay in the router and then my laptop could not communicate with a DNS server "

Then you have no external DNS server IPs on the computer, but just the LAN IP of the router. [[DNS Servers : 192.168.0.1]] This is normal. (Although I swear I had run into a router a couple years back where this was reversed.)

I would see about rotblitz's suggestion regarding the WAN connection type. Also, comcast may serve your DNS queries regardless, but maybe there is a way to opt out. Some Comcast customers do have their DNS redirected - and apparently if you use the Constant Guard software from Comcast, you DNS will also be redirected. See here:

"i need the router to force openDNS for the whole network "

The DNS on local machines takes precedence over the router unless you set router firewall rules.

"Advanced DNS : Disabled"

You may also try with enabling this.

What have been the results out of the Comcast webchat?

Did you consult D-Link support features? I would think this is the point to do so, because this seems to be a router problem, static DNS server addresses not taking effect. So not much to do with OpenDNS.

Only if you can set DNS only to static will this work. Otherwise you end up with no connection to the ISP.

I would suggest, at this point, that you unplug the router for a few minutes until the capacitors full discharge, plug it back in, and see what happens. Failing that, I would try resetting the router, then re-configuring the OpenDNS addresses. If that fails as well, you should check with D-Link support. In my limited experience, the 615 was always a good, solid, configurable router which worked well for many people.
