Mac OS Genie issues - OpenDNS Bypass User

Um. No. A process pegging an entire core and then having to be force killed to stop screams endless loop to me.
I have decided to return this router as it has too many problems:
1. Genie app causes high cpu and had to be force-killed to quit on Mac OS X
2. No way to use OpenDNS User Bypass without Genie app
3. Apple AirPlay is blocked between wireless and wired devices (documented in various other threads)
4. USB Printer sharing rarely works
