Sorry Telstra but this is my F@ST 5355 router:
Roughly a week ago I decided to give https://pi-hole.net/ a go having endured yet another ad laden website. All went we'll[sic], installation was smooth and was up and running 15 minutes later.
All that remained was to set my routers(sic) DNS server to the pi's and my home devices would be safe. I remember seeing the option in there for it.
WTF, it was now disabled. A quick google around revealed that about a year ago (June 2017) Telstra simply decided to remove that functionality.
Surely it had nothing to do with the Australian government implementing DNS based censorship in June 2017?
So fuck you Telstra, that's my router you made me purchase. Time to find out how to take it back.

Don't act so surprised by this behavior. Telecoms are run by kikes, who don't want you to be able to block their ads. The kikes know that if they bombard you with enough ads, eventually you'll buy their products and they get to take your money. Like all telecoms, Telstra is controlled by kikes. In the short term, the workaround to properly direct your DNS traffic to your pihole will work. But the long term solution is to remove the kikes from their management positions. Our society would be much better if we got the niggers off the streets, the kikes out of the boardrooms, and the towelheads off the planet altogether.
