OpenDNS doesn't work with Spectrum?

I followed the steps to set up openDNS to block websites on my network. My service is through Spectrum and I have a Spectrum router. All configurations were made via the Spectrum app (spectrum redirects everyone to use the app to make any changes). 

After following all the steps, when I run a test, I'm being told I'm not using openDNS. I saw in another thread that openDNS apparently doesn't work with Spectrum, is this true? If so, are there any other work arounds?

  Hello, 

   

  Many ISPs by default do not allow secondary DNS resolution which is required if OpenDNS is to work. If they do not offer the option for secondary DNS resolution as a standard practice ask if they can do this for you. If not you may want to change ISPs.
