I am not at home right now so I can't try it. But what is googles dns? Or where do I find that? I only know to set dns to automatic or to the settings that Overplay Smart DNS gave me to hide my geophysical location.

googles is 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4

Thank you. That allowed me to now access out of market games (previously mlbtv said I wasn't connected to network) but now I get a message that my in-market game cannot be seen live. This is what the Overplay's Smart DNS was supposed to circumvent. I feel like I still need to disable IPV6.

Since it seems clear that my Netgear modem/router will not allow the IPV6 to be disabled, I will have to go looking for another brand of modem/router.
