U-verse does not allow the user to change the Primary DNS address on the residential gateway's DHCP configuration page. It is hard-coded to 192.168.1.254, which is the gateway itself. I want to change that to 192.168.1.1 which is the static IP address for my Pi-Hole appliance. If I could, the Pi-Hole would become a stealthy and very effective whole-home ad blocker. There is no technical reason for AT&T to lock this down. I might understand this for the VOIP and IPTV segments of the gateway. Those probably have very complex and proprietary DHCP configurations. But for the Internet data segment, not allowing the user to redirect the Primary DNS spec is not justifiable. I may be able to use a Ubiquity EdgeX router to set up a user space downstream from the residential gateway using a totally different address space from the default 192,168.1.0/24, but I'm running into a WiFi conflict between the gateway and the EdgeX router I haven't yet been able to resolve. --Doc Savage Fairview Heights, IL
