You can verify by using a DNS leak test website (e.g., dnsleaktest.com) on a device connected to your OpenWRT network. The test should show Cloudflare as the DNS server being used. Alternatively, use `nslookup google.com` on a device in your network and examine the server address returned. If Cloudflared is working, the DNS server will be 127.0.0.1.
