Bypassing DNS-based censorship

Wed Sep 15, 2021 6:30 pm

I'm trying to set up my hEx S router such that it bypasses censorship in my country when resolving certain addresses. When I configure my ethernet connection to be static and resolve DNS queries directly to 8.8.8.8, none of the addresses resolved are censored. However, when I connect via DHCP, some addresses are resolved by state-run DNS servers.

What I've done:

* Disabled "use peer DNS" in IP -> DHCP client
* Added 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4 in IP -> DNS -> servers (two separate entries)

Clearly I'm missing some additional setting somewhere. How do I make it so DNS resolutions bypass state-run servers?
