Hi,
not sure if this is the right forum for this
I've mannualy set my DNS servers to googles directly on my router however each time plusnet renews my IP address it seems to force my router to use plusnets DNS servers unless i mannualy refresh the connection on my router. i've followed the instructions faithfully from both netgear and plusnet(its a NETGEAR D7800 Nighthawk AC2600) and can't see anything obviously wrong so I'm at a loss as why this is happening or if its intentional for whatever reason.

Hi yes i do its keeps the settings until Plusnet renews my external IP address then it defaults back to plusnets dns servers and i have to manually refresh the connection for it to use googles dns server these setting are always present in the mannualy set section of the settings if that makes sense, hopefully the example below shows what i mean took out mac address and ip address as its a public forum
what inpternet port says
saved settings for dns
and once internet connection is refreshed it goes back to googles dns servers. it just appears like plusnet is overridding my own settings on my own router and i can't see how to stop this as i've no desire to use their dns servers
