Well all FW for Cable ISPs has a hand in wnat NG gives them so ISP may have there own modifications before pushing out to users modems.
One reason why I prefer modem only units then install a external wifi router. More control over what ISPs don't need to have. :smileywink:

C6300[v1] or C6300v2? Look for "Model" on the product label.

"Can't change DNS servers" to _anything_ else, or only to some device
on your LAN?
Netgear router firmware on multiple models has been reported to be
unwilling to accept a DNS server with a LAN-subnet IP address.
I'm unaware of a work-around.
its the C6300 V1 Because it doesn't say V2
and if thats the cast i guess i wasted $200 on this piece of S***!
