=== Getting rid of Open DNS Forwarder ===
 
'''-This is set when AAISP configure the router.'''
What this does, is tells the DHCPv4 server to directly give out the addresses of AAISP's recursive DNS servers and not its, own, and then completely disable the integral DNS forwarder (notice the DHCP server can only be reconfigured while disabled).
 
The router may still be wanting to use itself as a resolver for internal lookups - ege.g. looking up names from it'sits configuration such as time servers etc. Telnet in to the router and set it to use the ISPs DNS servers, ege.g.:
 
dns client dnsadd addr=217.169.20.20 port=53
