| Can anyone recomend some good DNS servers for PA? I have been experiencing slow page loading for my cable conection lately... I am testing in the 3 meg zone, but web pages take awhile to respond or load?
I am in eastern pa, Montgomery county to be exact... Can anyone recomend any good dns servers that work well with our cable conection here in PA?
I think that would help me out a tad, ya think?
Thanks

1 edit | I'm in PA and use 4.2.2.1 and 4.2.2.2 and can't remember the last time I was on Comcast DNS.
These work fine for me:
4.2.2.1
4.2.2.2
4.2.2.3
4.2.2.4
4.2.2.5
4.2.2.6

I'm Central PA and have the same issue -- speed tests show that I'm close to the 3mbit, but pages are slow to start loading. Although, since the upgrade, I haven't tweaked any settings. | |

Boyertown, PA | Thanks, I will try them.. Is there a way to add all of them. Or can you only add two at a time in the properties section of networking?

A new backup one to use is 68.80.0.12. It's a 3rd DNS server Comcast set up.
Try that one as well.

Last week Comcast was down in my area one morning because i could not establish find a DNS. If I had used the ones listed above, should I have been able to connect? | |

| One thing to keep in mind is that it would be best to ping each dns server and see which offers the best response time. Put that one as the first.

A DNS Server will not help with throughput other than it can speed up how long it takes to look up a name and get the IP address associated with it. Once the IP address is obtained the DNS server is not touched again until such time that you need to lookup another name. | |
