Just wondering really. Switched over to OpenDNS from Be’s DNS servers last night. Mainly because Be’s DNS servers are notoriously unreliable.
I switched from O2 DNS servers (same as Be?) to OpenDNS due to problems and wouldn't go back.
Switched from BT to OpenDNS and never looked back.

Switches from VM to OpenDNS. Sometimes OpenDNS is slow. I don't know if it's VM filtering/proxying going wrong or if it's OpenDNS being slow.
PHP Code:$s = new signature();
$s->sarcasm()->intellect()->font('Courier New')->display();
I use a mix of openDNS and a few other reliable DNS servers.
Just set it up on my server just now to give it a whizz
I also find it slow at times, but have stuck with it.

running my own dns server..
Tried it, didn't like being routed to "their" Google, switched back.
o2 seem to have sorted their DNS out at last, so, so far, I wont be going back to OpenDNS
I tried it, it seemed slower than Zen's so no advantage. Tried it again recently instead of Vodafone's - again no advantage.

You know you can switch that off, right? It's only required for the content filtering.Originally Posted by mycarsavw

I use it over Be's DNS, was only a test, never really had a problem with supplied ISPs DNS, still use it only because I cba switching back
Can't really tell which is quicker, fastpath really cuts the latency for pretty much everything.
You can turn that off in the OpenDNS Dashboard...

Using it instead of the god awful tiscali dns servers, which I swear regularly fall over along with the rest of there infrastructure.
