Which DNS to use ????

[Mangoman20]

I seem to be having constant DNS issues lately.. I cant use cache's bacuase my company works with realtime information posted on websites.

Ive been given the following DNS addresses which work well in CT bad not so fast in jhb. I use them for my SAIX / MWEB connections

196.25.255.34
196.25.255.3

I had in the past used:

196.25.1.11
196.43.1.11

So which are the correct ones to use for best DNS resolution ??

does it make a difference between JHB and CT ?

use em all

 

[MobileAllOver]

should work with 196.25.255.34 and 196.25.255.3.

Using the nslookup command (Start, Run, Cmd) you can test connection to different server.

nslookup
server 196.25.1.1
address.to.resolve.com

i use a whole whack. the best one is the 2nd one, but it's also an international one so it's slightly slower.

196.25.1.1
208.254.3.183
196.23.168.138
196.22.192.14
196.43.1.11
196.25.1.11
196.4.160.2
196.4.160.8

haven't had DNS problems for a while!

nope
