I'm trying to using the DHCP features on a 68U, but regardless of what you enter in the DNS settings, it will always add 0.0.0.0 to /tmp/etc/dnsmasq.conf which DNSMasq will change to the router IP. When a client gets a lease, DNS is now set to my desired DNS server, but also to the router. In my scenario, the router does not have internet access, instead of bridging the modem, I just have it plugged into the LAN port (I need the modem and PPPOE diagnostics available).
I've manually changed dnsmasq.conf so it survives a reboot, but not sure if the GUI might rewrite this file when other settings change. I don't know anything about embedded linux but I imagine somewhere the daemon is getting started and I might be able to change the command line for it to force the -dhcp-option.
For surviving firmware updates, maybe there's a script that could run off the USB key in the back of the router? Hopefully it runs before DHCP leases are provided?
In the mean time, I've was manually setting DNS on the clients but for now I've gone back to DHCP on the modem.
