Hello,

I flashed 38253 build on my E1200v2 a few hours ago and everything is working great, except the WAN IP and OpenDNS blocking along with it.


My WAN IP is being reported incorrectly by DD-WRT.
WAN IP shows as "100.69.x.x".

While if I go to WhatIsMyIPAddress.com it's shows as "123.201.x.x" or "219.19.x.x", whichever range I get.

Also, I have setup DNS-O-Matic which also reads as
Code:
I:INADYN: IP address for alias 'all.dnsomatic.com' needs update to '100.69.x.x'


While DNS-O-Matic website shows my IP correctly as '123.201.x.x' or
'219.19.x.x' which means the IP is correctly updating on DNS-O-Matic.

But my OpenDNS blocking is completely not working.
Even through OpenDNS Dashboard and DNS-O-Matic shows my IP correctly and I am manually using OpenDNS IP on all my computer as well as the DHCP server on the router, still, none of the websites are being blocked.

Why is this happening?
Is the router forcing to use the ISP's DNS server?

What can I do here?

Was working fine on the previous build 30880.


Solved:
The WAN IP shows incorrectly in the router page but OpenDNS blocking started working after two hours or so and it working fine now.
After reboots it starts working in 5 minutes, dunno why it took two hours to setup itself the first time.
