faster DNS servers will only make opening of certain sites at certain times faster.it will not change your download speed.open DNS servers(208.67.222.222 and 208.67.220.220) are considered better than bsnl's own dns servers.

Problem with the BSNL DNS are that they cant resolve many domain ,we can use open DNS servers but it affects the speed ,any other solution other than open DNS

Open DNS servers being outside the BSNL network have higher latency (ping time is more). The BSNL DNS servers will be faster to reach.

But when the load is high, the BSNL DNS servers will be slower to respond. Hence URL resolution will be slower. Open DNS have a battery of servers across the globe and will be able to resolve quicker.

I often switch between OpenDNS and BSNL DNS from time to time.

OpenDNS or BSNL DNS sometimes affect the net speed also.

I am right now on OpenDNS. And I am getting decent download speed. But upload is not good.



Sometime (days) back, I was bad speeds on OpenDNS (829 kbps/218 kbps) and I changed to BSNL DNS. I got immediate speed benefit (1.7 mbps/284 kbps).

It can be done manually. Just one minute business.

Control panel > Network connections > Local area connection > properties >
TCP/IP > properties.

No. I set the DNS in the router.

I do not change this very often. Maybe, once in a month and that too, if I observe that the speeds are slow.

Thanks for the fast reply. I was googling, but got so many different numbers like 218.248.240.23, 69.65.59.222, I guess they all are correct.

If you are using BSNL DNS, it is best to leave it automatic. You will get the nearest DNS that way.
