technicolor TG582n DNS settings
Hi there
I have a someone who wants a roku box.
Now they have it, I find out they have this sh!t provider modem technicolor TG582n.
I've looked everywhere to enter Unotv DNS setting but nothing.
Can I connect the roku box to a old Optus modem which I can enter the DNA settings and then connect the Optus modem to the piece of sh!t technicolor TG582n ?????
If so can someone please help me?

Disable DNS and use something else as your DNS server?

Better to get another Modem/Router other than a technicolor TG582n
I went to the Netgear D6300 WiFi Modem Router
and works a treat with Telstra
Or maybe try one these I found
But Before You Begin "You must set a static IP address on your PC"
Make sure other devices are connected to the modem via DHCP
Check Telnet has been installed
Log into the TG582n modem interface Image
Click Home Network in the left-hand menu and select Interfaces
Click LocalNetwork
Click Configure in the top-right corner
Unselect Use DHCP Server and click Apply
Click Add under DHCP Pools
Open a Command Prompt (i.e. Start Menu, Run and type cmd in Windows XP)
Input Telnet 192.168.1.254 and press Enter
Input Administrator and press Enter twice
Input dhcp server lease flush and press Enter
Input saveall when you return to the Administrator prompt and press Enter
Return to your browser
Refresh the LocalNetwork page
The DHCP pool should now have Edit beside it
Click Edit
Input the following information into the appropriate fields:
Start Address: The first address to be assigned
End Address: The last address to be assigned
Server: The new IP address
Gateway: The new IP address
Subnet: The new subnet mask
Click Apply
Wait for the LocalNetwork Overview page to load
Click Configure
In the IP addresses sub-section:
Click Edit beside 192.168.1.254
Input the appropriate information into the following fields:
IP address: The IP address you entered in Step 15
Mask: The subnet mask you entered in Step 15
Select Use DHCP Server
Click Apply
Change your LAN settings to Obtain an IP address automatically
Your PC should now get an IP address off the modem from your new DHCP pool that matches the IP address of the modem and you should be able to access the internet as per normal.
Optional: The following steps only need to be applied if you intend using the 'Content Sharing' feature of the modem.
Open a command prompt
Enter Telnet 192.168.1.254 and press Enter
Enter Administrator and press Enter twice
Enter dhcp server lease add clientid=$_LMACADDR pool=LAN_private addr={Some address in your new pool} leasetime=0 and press Enter
When you return to the Administrator prompt, enter saveall and press Enter
Enter system reboot and press Enter
Wait for the modem to reboot
Or
1) Have your chosen DNS Server IP addresses handy. (OpenDNS / Google etc,.)
2) On Windows, enable the Telnet client option. (Control Panel ->Programs -> Windows Features)
3) Open a Command prompt and run
Telnet 10.0.0.138
4) When prompted, enter the username and password for your modem. Scarily the default is admin / [blank]
5) At the modem's telnet prompt, enter this command to view the current entries. Typically there are 2 dynamically assigned servers Telstra assigns on connection with a metric of 10.
dns server route list
6) Add your desired DNS Server: change the IP address to your selection
dns server route add dns=208.67.220.220 metric=1 intf=Internet
7) Add your second DNS Server selection:
dns server route add dns=203.50.2.71 metric=2 intf=Internet
8) Verify the changes:
dns server route list
Your two chosen DNS servers should appear at the top of the list because we assigned metric values < 10.
9) Save these changes
config saveall
10) Reboot the modem
system reboot
11) Close the Telnet window. (It dies when the modem reboots)

Thanks for the reply.
I just went out and bought her a netgear D600 modem/router.
Technicolor is in the draw now.
Easy swap over.
Cheers.
