hi, just got Xfinity and the Nighthawk C7000v2 modem/router, and have been trying to set up OpenDNS like I always used with my old Century Link system. I followed OpenDNS instructions, added the DNS addresses, and worked for the "test" example, but did not filter any porn sites at all. Contacted OpenDNS, they ran diagnostics, and said I needed to disable the IPv6 Firewall and use IPv4. There is only an option on Genie to disable IPv6, and did so. Still doesn't work, and OpenDNS has washed their hands of it, said I have to talk to Netgear. Netgear support was not able to log in to my computer, so I'm stuck paying for a service contract for a Netgear rep to come to the house, or figuring out some way to do a probably simple fix. Anyone else figured out how to make OpenDNS work on the newer Nighthawk C7000v2, and now that parental controls are not supported anymore?
Per OpenDNS instructions, used their DNS addresses in the "Internet" setup for manual DNS input:
Primary DNS 208 67 222 222.
Secondary DNS 208 67 220 220
Tertiary DNS .. (tried leaving blank, and also plugging in the 208 67 220 220 per OpenDNS helpdesk suggestion; didn't make any difference either way.)
Per the OpenDNS help rep, disabled (or tried?) IPv6 in the menu option .
I don't know how to paste in screenshots, but attached jpeg of the "disable IPv6" option... This has a whole different looking set of DNS settings, could there be something here that needs to be changed? (yet if only for IPv6 and DISABLING that, shouldn't be applicable). Seems IPv6 is not being disabled, even though I select that option (and APPLY).......
Thanks for any tips if you've solved this one!
