Hello,
my router is: ZTE H153-381
I want to add IP addresses open DNS
20.67.220.220 - 20.67.220.222
but in the DHCP angle there is no DNS zone below
also in the left menu under 'router', there is no DDNS
NB/ the account activated on this router is only User, I tried to access with ADMIN but I could not

Hello,
to put Open DNS into question, it must be set to Manual first, to access it.
To configure OpenDNS DNS (20.67.220.220 and 20.67.220.222) on your ZTE H153-381 router, access the admin interface via the local IP address (e.g., 192.168.1.1), sign in with your credentials (User), then go to Network Settings > WAN > DNS to modify them manually.
It is preferable to be connected by Ethernet and to be the only PC connected to do this..
You usually need to restart the ZTE BOX for it to take effect...
Some ISPs prevent this operation..
You have to try to verify.

Hello,
Two clarifications:
- Addresses are incorrect; OpenDNS uses the redirectors 208.67.222.222 and 208.67.220.220
- Cisco has withdrawn this service in France for 2 years; if
@tarik.mlh
StatusMember is in France, he may not be able to use OpenDNS.

yes, I confirm the clarifications from @Feldrip and I add here a bit of reading on "DNS Servers"
But the method remains valid, with all DNS
-- For DDNS, it’s another story. Dynamic DNS... has become difficult to implement.
