PeeWee Posted December 5, 2009 Share Posted December 5, 2009 Always worth trying. You can always change back just make notes of all your router settings (take a screen grap & save it) if your not happy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stu Posted December 6, 2009 Share Posted December 6, 2009 There really aren't any. You should be using your ISP's local name server for the fastest lookups. Google are claiming to offer a more reliable service, but it's not often an ISP's own dns service fails. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caled Posted December 6, 2009 Share Posted December 6, 2009 with the possible exception of O2/Be, I've had some issues with their DNS so I switched to OpenDNS and that seemed to fix the issue. Could perhaps try google's DNS, but I really dont see the point. IMO not one of the more useful services google offer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Open DNS have some malware/worm protection in place, so that's a nice little addition. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gives you control of blocking & preventing sites to your network too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
