I expect I'd have to tell something what DNS server to use.
The router is labeled ARRIS and is at 192.168.0.1 .
Anyone else stuck with it?

I don't recall what issue you're trying to resolve. However, if you want your Fedora system to use a different DNS server/service than your router is supplying via DHCP it is easy to accomplish.

If you're using the NetworkManager GUI you can select a "Method" of "Automatic (Addresses Only)". This will result in your system getting its IP address assignment from the router as it normally
would.  But, you'd manually enter the DNS server you want to use.

Examples of public DNS servers are....

Cloudflare: 1.1.1.1 and 1.0.0.1
Google:     8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4

Then, assuming your ISP doesn't block using them, you'd be using a public DNS server.
Just further to this check the wifi settings in your router, they may let you turn off using your ISP's dns servers and hard code your own servers using the address supplied by Ed. That way you can change what dns servers you are using without having to change anything in Fedora.
