WRT1900AC's DHCP does not hand out the specified static DNS entries

$

I configured three static DNS entries via Connectivity->Local Network.  E.g.:

 

Static DNS 1: 192.168.0.26 (I run my own DNS server on my network)

Static DNS 2: 75.75.75.75

Static DNS 3: 8.8.8.8

 

However, when a DHCP lease is acquired by any device, the DHCP server on the router hands out a single DNS entry: 192.168.0.1 (the address of the router).

 

I want to bypass the router for DNS lookups for a variety of reasons.  However, even in this configuration, the router isn't forwarding the DNS queries, thus breaking my entire subnet:

 

> server 192.168.0.1 Default Server:  [192.168.0.1] Address:  192.168.0.1

> bing.com

Server:  [192.168.0.1] Address:  192.168.0.1

DNS request timed out.     timeout was 2 seconds.

DNS request timed out.     timeout was 2 seconds.

DNS request timed out.     timeout was 2 seconds.

DNS request timed out.     timeout was 2 seconds.

 

*** Request to [192.168.0.1] timed-out

 

Any thoughts?  Anyone else experiencing this problem?
