In theory you could set this up on the Livebox but it wants you to put in a username and password. I expect if you leave them blank it would work but I'm not sure on that - might check it out later and post my results!
EDIT: Ok, you can't do this on the Livebox as far as I can tell. Another reason I should switch back to my old router!

After being unable to connect all day I accessed this page from my phone. did exactly as you said using the first two DNS addresses in your list and BINGO I'm online
I have had problems for about 2 and a half months. Tried everything under the sun- cannot seem to connect to 98% of webpages? I can connect to for example CNN news website, but cannot connect to hotmail, yahoo, ebay...?? Also, Google finds me search results, but i cannot click into them?
As i explained to Orange cronies in china (...please, i'd rather talk to a machine) x1 million times its not a firewall/spyware/virus/computer settings issue, but clearly a DNS server problem.
Nobody was admitting it for 2 months on the Orange side, but only after the 30th t/c , i spoke with a mr spok aka tech 'dude' in the uk, and he said "yes, there has been a problem with your line for some time now.." wtf no sh"t sherlocks! It must have cost me dearly on the international rate helpline...dreading the phone bill...need to re-mortgage the house...?
Anyway, finally convinced them to cancel the broadband service free of charge because i was not getting what i had paid for (what, no leaving gift?), but they expected me to continue to pay for my Canary/pigeon £30 mobile phone line, which has the broadband on as a "free offer?"- eh? I was told by a rep that "the broadband contract is made separately, when you take out the offer..."- didn't buy it. Don't be fooled- they are inter-connected, and the whole contract is breached.
Nevertheless, finally was able to cancel the whole lot... by-by oranges. But still don't feel satisfied, as i feel as though i had been raped-over by the company- e.g. they are screwing loyal customers like me over on the £50 minute helpline. Not coming back to them.
What a difference from 5 years ago? seriously, the company has become an embarrassment...
