but when I set it up like shown in the pdf attached to this message I still have the DNS provided by the internet provider. Am I doing something wrong? How to change the DNS to the ones that I want?

its a know situation...
you must use DNSmasq to avoid it...
turn DNSmasq on and add those lines in advanced Dnsmasq
options:
no-resolv
server=1.1.1.1
server=1.0.0.1
make sure NTP time is working
i usually use this GGL NTP time resolver

i didn't understand?? Did you try what i recommended...?
did you go to Services and turned DNSmasq on and added those rules from above....? you also need to turn on
''Quiery DNS in Strict order''and DNSmasq for DHCP
if no luck again and you applied those above, than your ISP is forcing their DNS
finally if those above are not working..
you can add this script to start up script
To be on the safe side I just did a factory reset of the router and applied all of your tips and still nothing. The ISP claims that they don't force their DNS. I can force it on my laptop with those tricks:

but smartphones conecting to the router are bounced back to ISP DNS.
I have to go and explain the ISP thet they must block it somehow as everything is set up on the router side.
Thank you for your help. I went back to the ISP, poked them with a stick, and was lucky enough to meet an admin who knew that it can blocked on their side and he made some sort of a special rule to use other DNS on my account and voila. It works!
