Help with router setup

I've followed the instructions to setup Open DNS on my Apple Time Capsule running version 7.7.9, but it's not working for me. The test pages says Open DNS isn't working and internetbadguys.com isn't blocked. I can't seem to find any more detailed instructions about what I'm doing wrong. Any help?

So you probably followed these instructions: 
https://support.opendns.com/hc/en-us/articles/228007647

I need more information.  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.

Thanks for the quick response. Yes, those are the instructions I followed. Here's what I got when I pasted that into Terminal:

You didn't post the output of the last command, just the command itself.

This is the DNS service you're using which is not OpenDNS:

Server: 2600:8802:0:588:dea4:caff:feb9:e878
Address: 2600:8802::588:dea4:caff:feb9:e878#53

As you have dual-stack connectivitiy (IPv4 and IPv6) you must also configure the IPv6 side from the following addresses:
::ffff:d043:dedc   ::ffff:d043:dcde   ::ffff:d043:dede   ::ffff:d043:dcdc

Sorry, output from the last command is:

Server: 2600:8802:0:588:dea4:caff:feb9:e878

Address: 2600:8802::588:dea4:caff:feb9:e878#53

 

Non-authoritative answer:

Name: whoami.akamai.net

Address: 68.105.29.108

 

Can you explain more about what this means: you must also configure the IPv6 side from the following addresses:
::ffff:d043:dedc   ::ffff:d043:dcde   ::ffff:d043:dede   ::ffff:d043:dcdc

 

This is what I'm looking at:

Thanks, the last command output did not provide additional insights in your case.

And correct, you enter ::ffff:d043:dedc and ::ffff:d043:dcde into the two IPv6 DNS Servers fields, same as you entered 208.67.222.222 and 208.67.220.220 before into the IPv4 DNS Servers fields.
