Title: [solved] Override ISP DNS
Post by: BrandyWine on August 21, 2025, 05:31:19 AM

Is there a way to override DNS settings OPNsense gets from WAN dhcp (ISP)? I don't want the device using their DNS nameservers, etc.
I noticed resolv.conf has ISP nameservers.

In "System: Settings: General", uncheck "Allow DNS server list to be overridden by DHCP/PPP on WAN" and OPNsense won't use the ISP DNS any longer.
