Being an Oleh Hadash who just wanted to hit the easy button six months 
ago, I also have the Hot modem/router.
It lease a bit to be desired, e.g. I could figure out how to properly 
get it to use my PiHole as the DNS server on my home network (could 
never find the option in the software), and I also couldn't get it to 
just run as a modem and let me use my old German DSL modem/router (a 
FritzBox and another easy button moment) as the home network router 
(because I could at least configure that to my heart's content).

So, are there suggestions/recommendations for how to reconfigure things, 
especially as pertains to hardware running OpenWRT or another free/libre 
alternative?
