Change DNS on a Tenda Router

Step 1: Access the Tenda Router

On any computer connected to the router, open a web browser. In the address bar, type the IP address of the router (the default for Tenda routers is 192.168.0.1). Enter your login credentials. The default username and password are both admin.

Step 2: Update DNS Settings

Navigate to Advanced Settings and locate the DNS settings section. Enable the DNS settings checkbox, then clear the existing values in the Primary and Secondary address fields. Enter the CleanBrowsing DNS addresses:

• Primary DNS: 185.228.168.168
• Secondary DNS: 185.228.169.168

Note: If you have a paid CleanBrowsing plan, use the DNS IPs provided in your dashboard instead.

Step 3: Save Changes

Click the Apply button to save your changes. The router may take a moment to apply the new DNS settings.

Step 4: Verify Configuration

Test your configuration by visiting badexample.com — you should see a "domain not found" error, confirming the filter is active.

Allow 10-15 minutes for changes to take full effect across your network.
