What are the Xfinity DNS IP's that I should assign to give to this device? I have everything using my internal DNS so I would need to add an exception for this device.
New Xfinity Flex will not work - ENT-22010
I just got the Flex box and hooked it up. The Welcome screen appeared as did the language selection. Then the "Yikes, that didn't work" message with error ENT-22010. After trying a refresh, which ran for a bit and also ended in the "Yikes" error, I disconnected power & ethernet for several minutes.

In theory, using the DNS servers directly upstream from you should be faster, but I have found that is simply not the case with Xfinity in two different states. In fact, I found them to be pretty unreliable in general with frequent timeouts like you

MG8702 DNS
Just upgraded to a Motorola 8702 modem/ router combo, purchased 3rd party.

Accepted Solution
You can't set DNS on Xfinity gear. Another feature disabled. You might be able to set DNS manually on a client and point it at your own local resolver if you are trying to do that. Maybe do it with a "hosts" file in your OS, or if it's a V

This is for work, I need to make a very simple entry in the DNS record for my home network to forward traffic for one url to one device. I cannot see a way to do it either in the Xfinity App or the router's admin page.

DNS hijacking on XB8-T?
I am aware you cannot specify DNS servers in the modem/router combo device XB8-T.
