The DNS in my home is restricted to the local internal DNS server so external servers will not work. My bond seems to be hardcoded to 8.8.8.8 (google). I tried using the device page to manually set the network config and change the DNS but it never changes (always shows 8.8.8.8). Anyone know a way around this?
