Opendns for better & safer I-Net connection
Hi SBI-comm!
Anon has just shown me that page about Opendns, so I applied its service and have to say there's really nothing to complain about.
It was easy to set up, and should be more secure than your isp's dns because of web content filters (like blocking known phishing, malware sites) that can be set up when you register at their homepage. (it isn't needed for it to work, but lets you customize things)
Another benefit you get is that your internet connection becomes faster and more reliable as opendns states:
Quote:
We have a global network of servers with sophisticated software that make your DNS requests automatically go to the OpenDNS server that's physically closest to you. The result for you is an immediately-noticeable faster, more reliable Internet for everyone in your household.
The installation is supported with a step-by-step guide for both ppl with a direct connection to the internet (without routers) and ppl with routers! :top:
So I just recommend it to everyone who hasn't switched to opendns already, since it has no disadvantages and can be done in just two minutes. :wink:
