Re: [DNS] How do I setup DNS server in an Aris Dongle Gateway mo said by Comcastnet :Please help me by letting me know how to setup OpenDNS servers on my Aris Dongle Gateway Modem... Thank you so very much... Does this Arris Dongle Gateway Modem have a model number? I can't find any documentation for an Arris Dongle Gateway. Perhaps if you post a model number, someone might be able to offer assistance. -- A well-regulated militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed.

Re: [DNS] How do I setup DNS server in an Aris Dongle Gateway moI think you may have mis-understood what has been said so far....
Let me break it down for you 
Kara's comment is below
quote: don't bother call comcast support on this one that would be no way. And setup own server on home chsi acct is no no against tos. Read it.
Then, ropeguru said, in reply to Kara. By the way, the "He" that is mentioned is in reference to you!
quote: He is trying to use OpenDNS' DNS servers instead of Comcast's.
In regards to your issue, if you could provide the information that NetFixer has asked for, someone will be able to help you set up OpenDNS on the "Aris Dongle Gateway modem". An exact Model # would help with that. It should be printed on the outside of the unit, either directly, or on some kind of sticker attached to it.

If that is indeed the case, then the OP is probably not going to be able to setup the DNS servers used by the gateway because Comcast has not provided that functionality to the customer. I do not have access to one of those boxes at the present time, but I do know that functionality was not originally available in those boxes the last time that I looked at one. -- A well-regulated militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed.
