Update DNS on Livebox 6 router from Orange

Orange unfortunately blocks manually updating the DNS servers for my own network, since I wanted to have my home server running dnsmasq, I went ahead and found a way around this limitation. It does, however, get reset to original values when the router is restarted.

Instructions

Login to the admin page of the router and navigate to Advanced Settings > DNS.

Inspect the DNS field and go to the console tab. We want to run the following commands inside the advanced_network_dns.htm frame context.

Update the IPs as needed.

setCfg("wan_dns0", "192.168.1.200 1.1.1.1")
subForm({frm:document.tF, cmd:subFormDNSConf, wait:2})
