Having browsing issues?

[Sideways14a]

Many folk on here appear to have web browsing issue's, the cause's of which could be endless.
However some are down to the isp running a wonkey or crap DNS, not only that some DNS services from ISP's are slower than a scooby above 60mph :wack:

You can of course use alternatives, just announced by big brother (sorry google) is there free DNS, open to all for nowt.

Basically the DNS servers are 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4, i am trying them out to see if there is a speed improvement.
There are others, opendns is avaliable as well as god knows how many ones hiding in different countries.

Give it a shot if your having odd issues.

You reckon that would be worth a shot for XBL if you always seem to have a moderate nat? I'm on Virgin media and XBL always says moderate even though I do everything physically possible my end to open my xbox up to the world.

I doubt it, DNS shouldn't really come into play (a great deal) i would have thought.
But hey give it a shot, as long as you know your old dns entries to revert to (prob just the router anyway)

Yeah, I used the routers ip for dns.
