How do I change my DNS with COX panoramic Router?

I have a cox panoramic router. I want to switch to Open DNS as my DNS servers for security reasons, as I am seeing frequent attacks on the router that I have been able to trace back as originating from the ISP DNS servers. However, I do not see any options for DNS in the panoramic router config options.

    Hello. Our panoramic modems do not support the option for changing DNS. -Allan Cox Support Forums Moderator.

    You'd change it on your computer(s) (Network & Internet) because by the time a web-content request gets to a router, your browser would have already resolved the URL into an IP address.

    Search how to change DNS settings along with your OS.
