Fed up by the speed of your internet speed provided by your
network?
By
changing the default DNS servers you can boost up your Internet speed. Because
DNS servers are the most trusted component of your web browsing experience but
few people understand how they work or how their security vulnerabilities can
cause you problems. I recommend that you read both What DNS Servers Do and How
to Change DNS Server before you change the DNS servers your system relies upon.
This is just a one time setting and make sure that the following DNS servers
works with your network provider.
How to change the DNS?
This method tells your computer which DNS to use for all
your internet browsing. Most home users have this set to "automatic"
and the DNS is provided by the user's ISP, but you can use any DNS you like
(you can even make your own DNS if you're keen).
Before you start you will need to know the IP address of the
DNS to use - if you don't know this you'll need to ask your system
administrator or ISP.
To set your DNS, you need to find the Internet Protocol
window.
For Users on a Dial-up Connection:
Go to My Computer>Dialup Networking.
Right-click your internet connection and select Properties.
A window will open - click the Server Types tab. Click
