Need advice on docsis 3.0 cable modem with DMZ and configurable.

you have 2 options, Im my case I used an ubiquity edgerouter lite and it
has Wan +2 Lan ports and full commercial tools for management. but it can
be set to amd a dmz on one port, and your network on the other port in very
little time.

If you want the All in one route, the other one I have used with great
success is the netgear Nighthawk c7000, I only retired it when I moved from
Cable to Fiber.
