I used to use open-dns some time ago.

Haven't in a while though since the default internet settings with Flow have been blazingly fast as is.

If things ever get slow, I'll try this again.

This is another one I found that's pretty good, with a good overview that's very descriptive. Try it.

I've never had cause to switch from OpenDNS since I learned of them...

dd-wrt firmware lets you enter 3 servers, so I put in Google DNS as 3rd.

I'm on flow and have changed the settings in my router... but it still checked and realised the internal one was 2nd faster than the open dns .220 but slower than the .222
