Google are unlikely to be bothered about a few lookups for nonexistent names but you may as well block them.

I can confirm that we are still seeing the requests after you have made your changes.

I'm still trying to get the correct configuration to get hits on Block camera 1 I thought it would be Google complaining. Is there anything else I needed to do. Sorry for the hastle.

To see which DNS servers are now assigned open a command prompt window and type
ipconfig /all
Note: there is a space before /all

That is just the router echoing the command. I was seeing that at this end but the command still get configured correctly.
@tarren
The output from the script indicated the router now issues google dns IP's.
This can be checked as per spraxyt suggestion. Please post the result from that test.
Please shout up if you have problems with the test.
Assuming the above test confirms the router is now issuing google dns to connected devices -- if any device is still using PN dns the there's two possible reasons.
1) the device has not been rebooted so it gets the new dns settings via dhcp from the router.
2) the camera is configured on static a IP addresses with PN dns configured, I tried to get this checked in post No22.
Did you add the firewall rules to block dns from the cameras, as requested in my post No58?

If I switch cam 1 off, presumably this would kill any hits to PN?
Many thanks again, I'll keep on trying and will get back.

In your post No 50 you were using IP's 192 .168.1.100 and 192.168.1.102.
Once you get this sorted out please make sure you tick "always use the same IP address" in the routers network settings for the two cameras.

You MUST do the above to stop the IP address changing.
