Hello,
Where do I make the change for the DNS address in my router? I see an option to change it in the LAN and WAN IP settings under the advanced tab. My router is a T3200M. What is the difference between the two options?
Thanks kindly.

You'll want to change the WAN IP ones.
Under Advanced > WAN IP Settings: Under "4. Select the DNS type.", choose the Static DNS Address radio button and enter the IP addresses of the servers you want to use.
Next, click on IPv6 WAN Settings on the left menu. Again under #4, choose Custom Servers and enter the IP addresses of the servers you want to use.
A recommendation for free secure DNS: Try https://1.1.1.1/
Remember to restart your browser after changing DNS settings. Rebooting your computers and devices isn't a bad idea either.

Yeah I changed the DNS on my PC first. It was maybe a hair faster than telus DNS. Was just curious where to change on the router to apply to all devices.
