Google DNS – browse at faster speeds by changing your DNS server
We have already seen OpenDNS, a free DNS service which is fast and reliable and here is another name which speaks of reliability….Yes its Google.
Google’s DNS servers claim that they resolve DNS queries quicker to provide a faster browsing experience.
Google has introduced a free DNS service, but it does not provide any customization and filtering as OpenDNS does.
The IP addresses of Google DNS Servers are:
Primary DNS 8.8.8.8
Secondary DNS 8.8.4.4
Some people confuse it with Level3 DNS servers because the IP range of Google’s DNS servers fall within the IP address rangle allocated to Level3 Communications.
But Google runs its servers themselves and says that users will be protected by DoS Attacks (Denial of Service) which sometimes happen through DNS servers. Also Google claims that the servers are fast and are located at many places around the world which provides fast access to users in many countries.
I must remind you that changing your DNS servers DOES NOT MEAN faster DOWNLOAD SPEEDS.
If you want to use Google DNS servers, simply point your connections Primary and secondary DNS servers to the one which have been given above.
A detailed guide is given in my earlier post on how to use OpenDNS servers for better browsing experience.
