Issues with IPv6 DNS on Archer C3200

I've been using OpenDNS for years with little to no issues. About a year or so ago I noticed the filter had stopped working and realized it was because IPv6 was enabled and all my devices reverted to it. Now I'm wanting to reenable IPv6 for optimized online gaming with my XBOX, however every single time I try to set the IPv6 channels on the router to 2620:119:35::35 and 2620:119:53::53, they keep defaulting to something else. I've never had a problem on this router when I set the DNS for IPv4.

 

If I disable IPv6 on the router, but set the IPv6 DNS on my XBOX, I'm assuming it won't matter since traffic is off at the router level. My ISP does assign me an IPv6 domain. I don't think I can enable IPv6 exclusively for one device either from the router configuration.

 

What am I doing wrong here...

  The DNSv6 addresses you are listing do not come with dashboard settings support. You need to use the DNSv4 equivalent IPv6 notation.
