Its not dns servers i tried opendns and google's stil nothing.
I have observed that alot of folks tend to mention using OpenDNS and GoogleDNS. Am curious to find out why the change?. IMHO recursive name servers are the easiest to build, operate and maintain. Secondly KENIC went to alot of effort to have DNS Root-Server instances and .org, .COM/.NET instances locally. Using OpenDNS and GoogleDNS does not make use of this implementations taking away any benefits associated with them being local. For instance when there's an international link outage, and one is using the free DNS servers, one will not be able to access locally available content/services. Point being that the DNS infrastructure was implemented to reduce the overall dependence on International connectivity for locally hosted services/content. The use of the International free DNS servers tends to moot this intent. Am definitely interested to hear why folks are changing. Regards, Mich.
