OpenDNS not working on home network

Ok, not sure what's going on here.  Went into my home firewall and added the OpenDNS servers as the DNS servers for my network.  I checked with an ipconfig /all and confirmed the only two dns servers are opendns' DNS servers.  I ran the tool to update OpenDNS with my public IP.  I googled "what is my ip."  The IP it came back with is the exact same IP address it shows in opendns.com's login.  But, I've had this running for days and opendns hasn't logged anything going on within my home network.  Any ideas?

  Resolution 1: Check the configuration on your computer to ensure that different DNS server settings are not configured. On Windows, check your configuration using the Windows configuration instructions, but rather than enter the OpenDNS numbers, ensure that they are set to "Obtain DNS server address automatically". 

  Resolution 2: Please refer the following links for a VPN client or the Roaming Client/DNSCrypt. 

  Resolution 3: Please ensure that if IPv6 is enabled (not recommended) that the only IPv6 DNS server is set to your router.
