I bought a Netgear CM700 and Nighthawk R6700 - AC1750 for my internet through comcast xfinity at my new apartment. Everything works as expected except Microsoft Remote Desktop does not work to my wor...
theres a few threads on microsoft about that error.

Error code: 0x300005f – Feedback for Microsoft Remote Desktop Clients (uservoice.com)
I read through these topics but nothing new to try or any solutions provided. I did buy a different netgear router to see if that fixes the problem, and it does. I unplugged the R6700 and plugged in the R6230, restarted the modem and the R6230 works fine. My working hypothesis is that the R6700 is too "smart" for it's own good! Now just waiting the hear back from Netgear about returning the 6700.
