Help Configuration TP-Link
DNS configuration for the router TP-Link WR841N (BR)
I searched the forum and the list of router configurations that OpenDNS has no thought but if you have please post there for me, if you do not thank someone can help.

In addition to Rotblitz's recommendations if you need more visual directions page 22 of this user guide shows where you can configure static WAN DNS settings if you have a dynamic IP http://www.tp-link.com/Resources/document/TL-WR841N_V8_User_Guide.pdf. You add the Primary and Secondary DNS setting listed above.

I came to this site for a tutorial by TecnoBlog.Net site, which says that when everything is set up right you enter on next page (http://www.opendns.com/welcome/) and has the following image appears. .
I did everything the guy up there said, and went on that page and did not show that message can help me some more, I'll put some pictures here of how it is configured on the router and on TCP/IPv4.
If anyone else can help me set up just right to the point image of Welcome min appear to be very happy.Thanks in advance, Marcus

There's nothing wrong with your router configuration. Configuring the OpenDNS resolver addresses on the computer is not necessary.
The test page is http://welcome.opendns.com/
If it does not work, it is likely that your ISP redirects your DNS lookups to their own DNS service. To see this you'll want to copy & paste the complete plain text output of the following command here (after having opened a Command Prompt window: cmd):
nslookup -type=txt which.opendns.com. 208.67.220.220

I tried to give the command you told me friend, how did it ever got a little kkk.
Look what they gave.

Please provide screenshots (using the links on this forum, not a third-party file sharing service) of these pages/settings you are referring to, especially the one that displays "oops"
Also, please copy and paste the output from the command that rotblitz provided in his reply to this thread a year ago.

This is right, PPPoE/Russian doesn't seem to offer entering DNS resolver addresses.
As always in these cases, this leaves you with the following options:- Replace this router by another where you can enter DNS resolver addresses.
- Flash the router with alternative firmware where you can enter DNS resolver addresses.
- Put another inner router behind this outer router where you configure DNS resolver addresses on the inner router.
- Configure the OpenDNS resolver addresses on the devices instead of on the router.
The latter is the easiest, not requiring any additional hardware or software.

Can't seem to get this to work in my DSL (dynamic private ip) line with a TPlink wifi router. Already configured DDNS. Still able to access bad sites. Here's the output of my NSLookup -
nslookup -type=txt which.opendns.com. 208.67.220.220
Server: 208.67.220.220
Address: 208.67.220.220#53

which.opendns.com text = "7.sin"

Your command output indicates that you can use OpenDNS if you're actually using it. I.e. your ISP doesn't hi-jack your DNS traffic.
"Already configured DDNS."
Why this? This has nothing to do with using OpenDNS. Same you could have said: "I already cleaned my car and my shoes".
Post the complete plain text output of the following diagnostic command:
nslookup -type=txt debug.opendns.com.

Pls ignore this request, I realized the one causing the issue is because my free OpenDNS account for the home is just for one network only. I'm trying to add another broadband line .
I also had a wrong assumption that to get it to work with dynamic IP, that DDNS should be enabled in the router

I use TP- Link 300M Wireless N Router (Model No. TL-WR841N v10.0) and my ISP (alliance cable broadband) gave me Static IP. I tried all the way I notice in the forum but nothing is changes in welcome page. What am I doing wrong? I don't have much knowledge about Static and Dynamic IP. I just want to add web filter to increase productivity and help my family to avoid unnecessary content. Please help me to configure my router.

@luqifar We have no idea what you've actually done, so we can't tell you what you've done wrong.
You either need to tell us what you've actually done, and how things are currently configured, or, since there don't seem to be specific instructions for your router model, begin following the directions from this page https://signup.opendns.com/homefree. If you haven't already created an account it will step you through creating one, otherwise you can sign up with the account you already have and continue from there.

@luqifar
"What am I doing wrong?"You don't read thoroughly enough. ;-) Else you would have posted the command outputs of:
nslookup -type=txt debug.opendns.com.
nslookup -type=txt debug.opendns.com. 208.67.220.220"I tried all the way I notice in the forum"
What exactly was this "all the way" you tried? You may post a screen shot of the related router page.
"I don't have much knowledge about Static and Dynamic IP. "
Well a static IP address is static and doesn't change, and a dynamic IP address is dynamic and therefore can change at any time. But this is rather unrelated to configuring OpenDNS. The only difference is that you should run an update client if you've got a dynamic IP address.

My router is TP-link TL-WR841n PPoE Russian. I've replaced firmware with DDWRT. I've done everything on this page http://www.dd-wrt.com/wiki/index.php/OpenDNS (including DNS-O-Matic for users with a Dynamic IP) and nothing works.
I dont have static IP, it's dynamic. To have static IP you should pay for that.
This is command output of nslookup -type=txt which.opendns.com. 208.67.220.220

"I am not an OpenDNS resolver."
Your ISP hi-jacks / redirects your DNS traffic to their own DNS service, so it doesn't matter what you configure and what router and firmware you use. :-(
You may call your ISP to see if you can opt out from this restriction, or you may try to circumvent this restriction by using https://dnscrypt.org/ - you may be able to include this in DD-WRT, see here.
"I dont have static IP, it's dynamic. To have static IP you should pay for that."
I doubt that having a static IP address alone would free you up from their DNS hi-jacking. The one has nothing to do with the other. If they say they do, request a written confirmation from them that providing you with a static IP address would also allow you to use any 3rd party DNS service.

My network is with the TP-Link Archer C7 AC 1750 router connected to a Thomson DWG874B cable modem. I have correctly adjusted the Opendns server settings on the router according to the instructions of the site but still not blocking anything, not even the test page. there is the image of the response to the command nslookup -type=txt which.opendns.com. 208.67.220.220. Please, rotblitz... guys... help me!
... help me! -
This command proves that your ISP does not hi-jack your DNS traffic and that you could use OpenDNS. But your symptoms indicate you not using OpenDNS yet. You must have configured the OpenDNS addresses at the wrong place, or your device is unimpressed about the configuration. In case your cable modem is a NAT device, you must configure OpenDNS there.
Copy & paste the complete plain text output of the following commands to here:
nslookup whoami.akamai.net.
netsh interface ipv4 show config -
This is not plain text, but screen shots. :(
"without having changed anything"
Yes, this is almost the reason why something doesn't work, because the world changes, and you must keep up with these changes.
In this case: your ISP has enabled IPv6 connectivity, and you must now configure also DNSv6, same as you configured DNSv4 before. As clearly can be seen, your DNS traffic goes to your ISP's DNSv6 service, not to OpenDNS, or at best randomly. So configure ::ffff:d043:dedc and ::ffff:d043:dcde as DNS servers in your IPv6 settings of your router, and you should be using OpenDNS reliably again without losing IPv6 connectivity.

Thank you, rotblitz, you're the guy! I am sure that this will help other people here in Brazil. Well ... Now my kids will not be very happy about that. Until the day when they will have their own children ... :-)
