(The only reason I even noticed Spectrum's DNS outage is that Netflix in my Blueray player has been stalling intermittently with a DNS error. it doesn't have a secondary DNS entry so I had left it on DHCP.)
That can sometimes be an issue with an ISP-provided router/gateway since they "doctor" the firmware in some cases to restrict options.
