Good afternoon! I need some help setting up a custom DHCP scenario and everything I've found online hasn't quite helped yet.
Goal:
DHCP from router issues IPv4 and IPv6 addresses with custom DNS servers
DNS IPv4: 192.168.11.250
DNS IPv6: fe80::211:32ff:fe3e:ead9
Currently I have DHCP working for both IPv4 and IPv6 and it issues the right IPv6 DNS server but I can't stop the router from issueing 192.168.11.1 (it's own IP) as the DNS server for IPv4. What I'd like is the DHCP server just issues the DNS server I want and not itself. The router's own DNS functions might as well be turned off. IPv6 via Comcast appears to work perfectly as well finally so I just really need the DHCP service to issue my custom IPv4 DNS server setting instead of itself. Thank you!

Another solution would be to leave the router DNS functions active but make DHCP offer my preferred DNS server 1st and the Router's IP for DNS IP 2nd. No matter what I change on the router I can't get it to stop sending it's own IP out ONLY as the IPv4 DNS server for DHCP.
