Nighthawk X6 R7900 Firmware Version V1.0.4.46_10.0.53 

I keep getting this error at most sites and quite often refreshing won't load.  Plugging directly into the Arris CM3200A modem, there is no issue.  It's only when I attempt via wifi with the Nighthawk that I have the issue.  Televisions are wired to the Nighthawk and they have some issues but not horribly.  PC's are wifi and the issue is ongoing despite flushing the DNS via ipconfig /flushdns or recycling the modem and router.  (Flushing works for one click but not after that.)  With  modem I have no issues but when I go via wifi via the Nighthawk, is when I have the errors so that tells me it is a Router issue.

    Try a different DNS Server. Here's a few. Also remember to change the ipv6 dns server if ipv6 is enabled.
    CloudFlare
    IPv4: 1.1.1.1 and 1.0.0.1
    IPv6: 2606:4700:4700:0:0:0:0:1111 and 2606:4700:4700:0:0:0:0:1001
    GoogleDNS
    IPv4: 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4
    IPv6: 2001:4860:4860:0:0:0:0:8888 and 2001:4860:4860:0:0:0:0:8844

    Re-look at your numbers you typed in. Not sure if its the photo quality but the DNS numbers aren't matching from all the numbers. Again, it could be the photo
