TIPS: Find Better DNS Servers
|
Recently, my ISP ticked-me-off. They changed their DNS servers so that any incomplete URL brought me to their 'customized search engine error page which suggested all the paid sponsor results instead of what I was really looking for.
For example, typing cnn in the URL box brought me to a crappy search page where I could order transcripts of CNN shows. Grrr....
Fortunately, there are Public DNS servers. Companies that host DNS servers for the good of all. The list is long and I chose the two servers offered by Cisco because, well they're a big company! I was going to run some timing tests, but I could tell the Public DNS servers we so fast it would have been a waste of time to time it!
Happy surfing The Internets.
