C1200 - Static route to block google DNS
Model :

Hi Guys,
I have TP link C1200 model and I need to access streaming sites from India and other countries. These sites are geo restricted, meaning can't access outside that country. I can use either VPN or smartdns to bypass the geo restrictions. I went with smartDNS option and set those DNS in router - worked perfectly.
My issue is with chromecast which always sends request to router to use google dns. I need option in router to block Google dns so router always uses the ones i set.
I tried adding Google dns in static route option but not blocking - still can ping to 8.8.8.8.
i've attached the screenshot where i've added static routes, disable IP6 in router(someone hinted Chromecast use IP6).
Help guys.. Thanks
