DNScrypt 2860 was created by benam888
Hi Folks sorry if this has been asked before I have looked on google and searched here on the forums but haven't had any joy.

Does anyone know how to setup DNScrypt to opendns on a 2860?

I am pretty sure my ISP cant setup dns properly its a community project great speeds 1gb fibre to the home but crap support. Thing stop working no matter what DNS server I use so I setup a DNScrypt proxy on my pc and everything works perfectly. I think there is some man in the middle crap going on!

As you can't add scripts in your router like you can with WWRT routers, the only thing you can do is install the client on Windows and put the chosen DNS numbers in the router.

I gave up DNSCrypt long ago as I found the servers too unreliable.

If you have or suspect DNS issues with your ISP you could try using DNS Watch . https://dns.watch/index I find that to be reliable and stable and their resolvers will allow you to prove if there is an issue with your provider.

google open dns servers or opendns.com are very good.
