    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:

   Note that the picture which you attached (twice?) shows a different
error message, and only you know what you put in to cause it.
