Hello,
Currently the "Mode" setting in DNS > DNS Server Settings has two options: "Automatic" and "Manual".
I'd like to propose a 3rd option that I call "Hybrid", that would act like a combination of the existing 2 options. I want to be able to manually specify DNS server(s) that get used as the top priority, and have the device fall back to whatever DNS "Automatic" mode would use (e.g. whatever DNS is provided upstream by DHCP).
In my use case, I use Tailscale on my device, but I don't run it via the GL interface (it has never worked for me). I want to use Tailscale's DNS (100.100.100.100) as the main DNS server. However, since that only knows internal VPN domain names, I still need a standard internet DNS server. Right now I just use e.g. 1.1.1.1, but sometimes I need/want to use the DHCP-provided DNS instead.
In order to do this with manual mode, I have to figure out the DHCP-provided DNS info and update the DNS Server 2 setting every time I change to a new WAN network.
In my theoretical "Hybrid" mode, I would simply manually specify my priority server(s), and the DHCP-provided DNS ("Automatic" mode) would be used as additional DNS servers. Anytime I switched networks, the "Automatic" portion would correctly update and I wouldn't have to do anything.
For reference, I am using a Beryl AX (GL-MT3000). Thanks for making great travel routers!
