I do not reply to any posts in that ER605 LAN DNS thread.
Upgrade to this firmware and you will be able to use the LAN DNS with the proper Controller support.

Dear TP-Link Omada Team,
I previously requested the addition of an LED scheduler / night mode option for Omada devices in this post:
👉 https://community.tp-link.com/en/business/forum/topic/710844?replyId=1432846
However, I’ve noticed that even in the latest firmware and controller version, this feature is still not available.
Could you please share a timeline or ETA for when the LED scheduler / night mode option will be added?
Having this feature would be very helpful for managing devices in environments where LED brightness needs to be controlled during certain hours.
Thank you for your continued improvements to the Omada platform!

Thank you for reaching out and sharing your suggestion regarding an LED scheduler/night mode feature for Omada devices. We appreciate your engagement and understand how this functionality could improve your experience.
At this time, we cannot confirm whether or when this feature will be implemented. All requests are carefully evaluated based on technical feasibility, user demand, and development priorities. If approved, the feature would still require time for design, testing, and integration into future firmware releases.
While we do not have a specific timeline to share, your feedback has been forwarded to our product team for consideration. We encourage you to keep an eye on our official release notes and community forums for updates on new features and improvements.
We appreciate your patience and continued support. If you have any further questions, feel free to contact us.
