    As I suspected and according to your manual (http://www.zoomtel.com/documentation/cable/5350_UserManual_Eng.pdf) you can't change the DNS settings.

    I concur with rotblitz and could not find any place in the manual referring to changing the DNS settings.

    There is probably no "best DOCSIS 3" device. Your current device is likely ISP provided, right? These devices are known to be trimmed down with their firmware to support special ISP features and to minimize the ISP's support efforts.

    That said, most non-ISP provided (i.e. original manufacturer) devices normally do not have such limitations. You may look after those, study their specs and manuals online to find what's most convenient for you.

    You may also want to read e.g. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DOCSIS to become more familiar with this technology.
