Model: Archer C64  
Hardware Version: V1
Firmware Version: 1.12.0 Build 221010 Rel.35508n(5255)

So when I change DNS addresses and click "Save" they seem to save, I can update page and changes are there (not sure they are really applied and work though). But when I reboot router they reset back to default, like on the screenshot. I've found this post regarding Archer C80 having the same issue, and it needed a firmware update to fix it. I'm on the latest firmware available from System -> Firmware Update.

Refer to this post - TP-Link are aware of this issue and they most probably would release a beta FW to fix that until they come up with a next stable FW release.

Meanwhile don't try to upgrade your C64 with a beta FW intended for C80 - TP-Link support should provide a beta FW for the C64 specifically.

  @Cawsie Yes, but on this page I can't set DNS from local network, only from WAN. I need to add my local DNS, something like a PI-Hole.

I think this is a bug in Firmware 1.12.0 Build 221010. As soon as I updated to this firmware my DHCP settings revert to default and reenable itself upon reboot (another device on my network acts as DHCP server). There is a beta build of Firmware (in another tread) which works on Archer C64 (I have tested it on one of my C64s), but this is not ideal as it should be fixed with a proper bug fix.
