The configured DNS servers on your end just forward the requests to others near you that do the actual lookups. I wouldn't be too concerned with the different IPs, unless they show up as owned by a different company than the one you configured (then it may indicate some type of DNS hijacking/proxy ...

While i probed the router further, with different software and settings, i was shown a server, that i have not configured as dns server.

Hi, a wow reply from you. I do not understand this phenomena for quite long time. I raised those queries to avast and some leading forums, but they have not answered that much precisely. They say that DNS just changes domain name to IPs, without elaborating further. Thanks Philips.
While google DNs ...

Hi, I am using avast antivirus and Dlink router.
