Happy with the connection and service, although was just wondering if I would see any speed improvement if I swapped my DNS over to OpenDNS.
Any opinions on this?
growse said:Probably not. Virgins dns servers will be fewer hops and therefore should be faster lookups. Also they have a big enough user-base to give a decent-sized cache.
I'm inclined to say that a DNS service should return the IP of a domain when asked for it. Filtering is not the job of a DNS provider, the same way deleting (possible) spam is not the business of my ISP.sgx.saint said:Also, like the idea of the anti-phising and spam filtering built into the OpenDNS.
