Excellent. Thank you.
Unfortunately, it's not working. I've tried restarting dnsmasq and also rebooting the router, but no diifference.
Yes, they are all there (at the bottom of the original list).So check the contents of '/etc /dnsmasq.conf ' before and after you have issued 'service restart_dnsmasq' (No need to reboot!) to see if the contents of the dnsmasq.conf.add exist, and if file /etc /hosts contains the contents of hosts.add.
NOTE: Due to posting restriction, I have deliberately put a space in '/etc /hosts' so ignore the space in the directory tree if using the command line, but in WinSCP it won't matter!

I've found the answer - I needed to make some additional changes: 1) Put the OpenDNS settings in on the WAN page; 2) Change the Parental Control settings to use "router." It's working now.
I am having the same trouble as you. Can you be more specific as to your answer......do you have a screen shot of how to put the OpenDNS settings in on the WAN page? Which tab on WAN? I see a tab for internet connection, etc. and within each tab, what field to I complete with opendns settings?
Yes, DNS Filtering. Set the Enable DNS Filtering to ON. Change Global Filtering to Router. Click Apply.Likewise, how did you change the parental control setttings to use 'router"? I see tabs for parental controls and dns filtering...is it dns filtering and if so, what field in dns filtering? a screen shot would be helpful, thanks.
Yes, Internet connection - Under WAN DNS Setting, change Connect to DNS Server automatically to No and enter in the OpenDNS DNS settings in DNS Server 1 and 2. Click Apply.
Yes, DNS Filtering. Set the Enable DNS Filtering to ON. Change Global Filtering to Router. Click Apply.
yes - the DNS request will happen before the encryption.
Here are a some screenshots of how I have set mine up. I'm not sure whether I needed to use the "execute" command, but I did it anyway and then rebooted the router, after which everything was working fine (once I had put in the OpenDNS settings in the WAN tab and changed the DNS settings to use "router"). Note: I originally opted for the more complicated setup (explained further up this thread), but I have since opted for the simpler one file solution, but both worked equally well.Thanks....I tried these settings and it is still not working. I flushed DNS on each device as well and it didnt make a difference. Is there more information I can provide to see if folks have other thoughts? If so, what information would be helpful. Thank you
That page should be there as it's been there for at least 3 or more years. @bennettg - can you post a screenshot of your WAN->Internet Connection tab?
Does this trick still work with current firmware?This seems what you want https://github.com/RMerl/asuswrt-merlin/wiki/Enforce-Safesearch

Is your PC configured to use the router IP as its DNS server?I have finally tested on the 384.8 firmware. It does not work for me.
on the router it works but not on the PC.
