If you never enabled it it is enabled by default. Check Administration/System.
What version of firmware are you using here?
Oh sorry didn't see your post, it is still on 384.7. Is this a new feature?
On prior versions Network Monitoring is under Tools. Don't remember which tab, though.
Okay, so apparently slow was not correct. I usually test ad blocking by going to Yahoo but it must have just loaded an already cached page. This morning I tested other pages and the loading bar will sit idling for about 15 seconds and then the page times out.
DNS query on mine is checked. I thought Stubby makes this change. I never selected it, but I remember Stubby saying that it would change the default way the router handled DNS.
Stubby has nothing to do with that setting. That setting uses DNS to determine if your network is up. It has 2 ways of doing so, neither of which are needed for a setup unless you have difficulty. It would be best to un-check both.

#I unchecked both and I invited no additional difficulties. However, the Advertise DNS to clients, still doesn't work. When I check no on that item, I am able to connect to the VPN with my phone off-site, but receive ads. When I select yes on that, my internet connection goes down for off-site devices.Stubby has nothing to do with that setting. That setting uses DNS to determine if your network is up.

Thank you for posting this.
Yes, the listen_address is where stubby receives DNS traffic from dnsmasq.
The listening addresses are the addresses used for loopback. They allow getdns/stubby to recieve and send DNS packets from and to the router/dnsmasq and thus from and to clients.
This probably does not help, but my setup is working as you would want it to.
