Not sure if the C7000 actually support disabling ipv6. have you logged into the router to see if you can disable it?

Yes, everything done within the Netgear Genie menu.
I called Xfinity, NO help (must be Netgear's problem).
Called Netgear, wouldn't even talk to me since 90 day warranty up (even though only had it for a month thanks to Xfinity taking 3 months to bury my cable!). So, finding no other answers, I guess I punt on OpenDNS (their helpline suggested same), and try Cloudflare or something for filtering. That is all I'm loooking for. Thanks!!
