Unable to switch back to non-static DNS settings on TD-W8960N
Model :
Hardware Version :
Firmware Version :
ISP :
In trying to diagnose a problem with a client's router, I changed the DNS settings from using ppp0 to a static DNS entry using Google's 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4 servers. Worked okay but as this was a test, I wanted to put it back to ppp0 (as the change didn't fix the original problem). However, I was unable to achieve this. I highlighted "ppp0" top left and used "->" to move it to the right. When I tried to save, it complained about there not been an interface selected or static IP addresses. I tried almost every combination but was unable to get it work. In the end I had to factory reset to get rid of it which is hardly ideal! I was running out of time so didn't take a screenshot and I certainly wasn't going to try repeating it again.
