How to set up Smart DNS on DD-WRT Router

On a phone or computer connected to the router you are configuring - follow the steps below:

Step 1:

Open your browser and visit 192.168.1.1 OR 192.168.0.1 OR 192.168.2.1  (Exact address may differ - Check the sticker on the router itself to confirm)

Step 2:

Log into your router. If you have not changed the default login information and you are unsure - look for a sticker on the router itself for the default login.

Step 3:

Go to Setup -> Basic Setup -> Network Setup -> Network Address Server Settings (DHCP)

Step 4:

Fill in Preferred DNS and Secondary DNS with the following:

  • Preferred DNS: 66.33.68.1
  • Secondary DNS: 66.33.68.2

Step 5:

Go to Services -> Services -> Services Management -> DNSMasq -> Additional DNSMasq Options and enter the following command into the text box: -strict-order

Step 6:

Save the configuration and restart your router if it did not do so automatically.
