OpenDNS Test Not Working

Hey all,

A friend recommended OpenDNS to me.  I set it up on my router, and, it's not working...  Explanation:

I triple-checked my router's DNS settings to match OpenDNS.  I have never set my computer or router to route to anything other than default.

With the three test sites, craigslist.og is rerouted and internetbadguys.com is blocked.  However, when going through the initial setup steps to the testing, and going to welcome.opendns.com, neither work.

I already flushed my computer's DNS cache, I don't think my router has a DNS cache, and I cleared my browser's cache (& everything else) multiple times.

Any pointers?  Thanks!

  Post a screen shot of the router's page where you configured the OpenDNS server addresses.

  Also, post the complete plain text output of the following commands:

  nslookup -type=txt which.opendns.com.  208.67.220.220

  ipconfig /all

  Removed first two octets of gateway & public IP's (which were the same).

   

  First command:

  Server: resolver2.opendns.com
  Address: 208.67.220.220

  Non-authoritative answer:
  which.opendns.com text =

  "9.nyc"

   

  Second command:

  Try with disabling the IPv6 protocol in your active network connection on the computer and see if it works then after having flushed your local resolver cache and your browser cache.
