Any dns requests that are not located on the lan are passed on to the public dns ip(s) |

Is there any advantage in setting OpenDNS or Google DNS server IP addresses in the router? |

kudos:1 | I don't think open dns or google dns offer any advantages over the isp dns |
|
| Are you saying that if the local router doesn't find what it wants, it passes the request to Verizon's DNS servers? |
