Reliable DNS servers anyone?

[Venom Rush]

Hi there

Is anyone able to provide me with some reliable DNS server ip's? Our work connection has been shocking for the past 2 months all because of SAOL. They provided us with new DNS initially because there was a problem with the previous ones and things just haven't been working the way they used to.

the only solution you need is http://www.opendns.com/

208.67.222.222 and 208.67.220.220

+1, just not reliable on some instances with South African sites.

It's not Open DNS' service that is unreliable - it's the damn local ISP's badly configured proxy servers...

Will switch to any ISP that doesn't utilise a local installed proxy server, but to find such an ISP!
