Re: Avoid DNS redirection all together...

said by seropith See Profile :

So these are public servers, or servers for customer user?

OpenDNS adds a few ms response time.

We should be able to use the ISP's DNS server. Not some servers that we are not technically supposed to use (4.2.*) or sign up for stuff like opendns.

said by factchecker :

If you can use them, use the following public DNS servers:

4.2.2.1
4.2.2.2
4.2.2.3
4.2.2.4
4.2.2.5
4.2.2.6

Or, if you are inclined to, try OpenDNS.
You don't have to sign up for opendns, just put in 208.67.222.222 and 208.67.220.220 and off you go.

I still use my ISP's DNS servers as its 8ms to them or 60ms to opendns or 4.2.2.x and i see no difference between them and my ISP DNS servers.
