Hi folks,

On the Interface Setup > LAN page of my TD-8817 config, the DNS servers (primary and secondary) are both 178.132.200.66, which traces to Selectel in Russia. What the FUCK?





I can't change the DNS settings – when I try to overwrite them (e.g. with 8.8.8.8) and click SAVE, nothing happens. When I try to change the drop-down selection from "Use User Discovered DNS Server Only" to "Use Auto Discovered DNS Server Only" and click SAVE, again, nothing happens.

I tried searching Google for that IP and all that came up were IP lookup type sites, all suggesting it's a Russian IP.

What the ever-living fuck is going on here? :mad: Can someone please help me to change the DNS settings?

Thanks in advance.

Maybe you was HACKED?

I guess on my IMHO - Try to update firmware from official site (without save and restore settings). And make setting again manually.
And change default password on it from ADMIN to on other.

Regards, Arsen.
