Now Using OpenDNS

leave a comment »

I’ve just configured my home router to use OpenDNS. It’s a pretty cool service. OpenDNS is a suite of value added DNS services, like phishing detection and fine grained control over what resolves.

I switched because ever since I switched to DSL, my DNS lookups have become very slow. It’s not the kind of thing you notice until, well, you notice that it’s too slow. Switching to OpenDNS fixed that problem. Now I don’t notice the DNS lookups and everything continues to function.
