Hi, I am using Linksys ADSL AM300 modem to connect to BSNL Dataone. I want to use OpenDNS for DNS Servers. I tried the method described on OpenDNS website and changed all the settings as follows:
1. Select Control Panel from the Start menu.
2. Click Network Connections from the Control Panel choices.
3. Choose your connection from the Network Connections window.
4. Click Properties button.
5. Select Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) and click Properties.
6. Click the radio button Use the following DNS server addresses and type in OpenDNS addresses in the Preferred DNS server and Alternate DNS server fields.
I typed
208.67.222.222 (Preferred DNS server)
208.67.220.220 (Alternate DNS)
Still when I log into OpenDNS Account I get error Your current IP is 117.194.65.89, but it's not using OpenDNS.
following are ipconfig details:
