Name resolution for the name dns.msftncsi.com timed out after none of the configured DNS servers responded.


428 such events since I restarted the system following tonight's security update.

Okay so I have to ask the honest question exactly what do you think you gain by running your own DNS server? ]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-Internet-Very-slow-internet-speed-tonight-27845158 Fri, 21 Dec 2012 01:26:19 EDT http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-Internet-Very-slow-internet-speed-tonight-27845156
I started my computer career in 1964 back when computers really were tubes.

But as long as I have your attention, I'm considering a personal DNS server either running on my desktop or as a dedicated machine. I've run Treewalk DNS in the past and was happy with it but that's no longer available.

I'm open to suggestions or being told I'm wasting my time and money.

Sam Knows
Ookla
Visualware

Any site offering a home brewed or a fancy flash uncertified testing platform is just wasting your time and there are plenty of them out there...most nothing more than a landing page with ads and lots of technomumbojumbo thats designed to impress you but will do nothing but leave you scratchin your head.

You were sent to sites that use Ookla and Visualware platforms. Sam Knows you will need to sign up to become a volunteer.

I have a sense that Brighthouse can provide the marketed speed. Unfortunately, once you get beyond the local NOC it just doesn't happen.

I'm thinking there's not much need for a very fast car when you can only use it in your own driveway.
