    I had my Cisco 3925 fail a couple of nights ago and it was taken back by the courier when he delivered my Media hub.

    Now, I am in the situation where I need to be able change my DNS and require a router to do this. However, I also need the use of the telephone that is hooked up currently to my Media Hub.

    If I connect a suitable replacement router to my bridged hub, will ithe telephone work. And, can anyone recommend a suitable router for this?

    I was looking at the TP link Archer c7 oir c8 but am unsure if they will do the trick. Is there an alternate?

    On VirginMedia Hub 3 there is no option to set DNS server. So I changed the VirginMedia Hub mode from Router to Modem. I have then a Netgear router connected to the Virginmedia hub to which all the devices are connected. The telephone is still connected to the VirginMedia Hub and works fine.

    See the below thread for more details and how to do it.
