Can I see if OpenDNS is being used on my router?

cyrusek0 — Fri, 19 Jun 2020 14:54:38 GMT

Hello,

I've tried to see if it was possible if OpenDNS is working through the "tracert" command on cmd. But nothing has showed up, even if I went to welcome.opendns.com, it still says nothing is working, next if I go to internetbadguys.com, still it doesn't block! So how would I figure out if OpenDNS is being used?

Thanks

Visiting http://welcome.opendns.com is the way to see if you’re using OpenDNS.

And no, tracert is not a tool which could prove this.

Copy & paste the complete plain text output of the following diagnostic commands to here.
nslookup -type=txt debug.opendns.com. 208.67.220.220
nslookup -type=txt which.opendns.com.
nslookup whoami.akamai.net.

What should it say if it works?

All commands return variable information from/about OpenDNS. Any other DNS service cannot provide this information.
