If you do change the DNS to Statically Assigned, I believe you'll need to reboot the T3200 for it to actually take effect. Depending on the devices you have connected, do you know how long each will go before automatically updating to use the Windows server for DNS? If they don't do it automatically, they may need rebooting also. Plus if you're using IPv6, I don't know if you can even set custom DNS on the T3200M. I don't see it in the settings.

 

The other problem you'll find is DHCP on the T3200 can't be disabled.

 

Are you on standard residential internet or business internet? Is it fibre or DSL?
