Set up 1.1.1.1 - Router

1. Go to the IP address used to access your router’s admin console in your browser.

   • Linksys and Asus routers typically use http://192.168.1.1 or http://router.asus.com (for ASUS).
   • Netgear routers typically use http://192.168.1.1 or http://routerlogin.net.
   • D-Link routers typically use http://192.168.0.1.
   • Ubiquiti routers typically use http://unifi.ubnt.com.

2. Enter the router credentials. For consumer routers, the default credentials for the admin console are often found under or behind the device.

3. In the admin console, find the place where DNS settings are set. This may be contained within categories such as WAN and IPv6 (Asus Routers) or Internet (Netgear Routers). Consult your router’s documentation for details.

4. Take note of any DNS addresses that are currently set and save them in a safe place in case you need to use them later.

5. Depending on what you want to configure, choose one of the following DNS addresses for IPv4:

   Use 1.1.1.1 resolver

   1.1.1.1
   1.0.0.1
   Block malware with 1.1.1.1 for Families

   1.1.1.2
   1.0.0.2
   Block malware and adult content with 1.1.1.1 for Families

   1.1.1.3
   1.0.0.3

6. Depending on what you want to configure, choose one of the following DNS addresses for IPv6:

   Use 1.1.1.1 resolver

   2606:4700:4700::1111
   2606:4700:4700::1001
   Block malware with 1.1.1.1 for Families

   2606:4700:4700::1112
   2606:4700:4700::1002
   Block malware and adult content with 1.1.1.1 for Families

   2606:4700:4700::1113
   2606:4700:4700::1003

7. Save the updated settings.

​​ Using DNS-Over-TLS on OpenWrt

It is possible to encrypt DNS traffic out from your router using DNS-over-TLS if it is running OpenWrt. For more details, see our blog post on the topic: Adding DNS-Over-TLS support to OpenWrt (LEDE) with Unbound Open external link .

​​ FRITZ!Box

Starting with FRITZ!OS 7.20 Open external link , DNS over TLS is supported, see Configuring different DNS servers in the FRITZ!Box Open external link .
