;D Welcome to the DNS world.
DNS - the are soooo many you get realy confiuse witch one to choose.
DNS - the are soo manny opinion about , you read them & you get more confiused.
The story about DNS is sharp & is even biger then the story about security systems.
Witch one is the best - witch one is right for you ?
Is it the DNS witch is closer to you place ? maybe the one that people talk about most ?
* the answer is ,the best one is the one witch work safe & propper for you *
1 DNS does not speed or slow you internet conection.
2 DNS realy does not afect you conection no matter where is from. Can be the closest to you doorsteps or even one from the another end of the world.
;D click on the web page -you local news paper ,then click if you are in the UK on a web page from the USA. Is there any diference in downloading the web pages?
No you cant recognize any. Why ?
Because the PING -the time started - you send a request to a web adress and the respond is mostly about 10 to 50 miliseconds. Its mean its take 1/3 of one second to make the way.
You think - im living in the USA also the best DNS will be one from the USA - because a quicker respond !
Fals again ? Why ? because you have to notice that even you local tv or online service are using a server from the UK or Germany . Yes They do it ! the reasons can be ;
1 the cost of using a server
2 the security
and other factors.
You are seating at home i Miami & you think ,you are clever because ,you are using the local DNS to browse the web. But you did not notice that you local online service use a server in the UK or France.
You clikck a web adress and you are redirected true all the world . You will never notice that ,because its happened in a time witch is 1/3 of one second .
The time is not a factor in this case. But the time matters in the security sector of a DNS.
All DNS service provider have a library of malware and wiruses & every one have the availability to recognize the -beasts- in a particular period of time.
But all that happened again in a period of miliseconds. 1/100 to 1/10 of a second .
Its the one with the quickest time to recognice the infected www. the better one ?
Not nessesary - often that quickness causes problems and can even drive you mad
If the DNS did it to quick ,its mean start to redirect you just after recognising only part of the www. you clicked ,often mistakenly send you to a wrong www. That sort of DNS are especialy easy target for hackers .
Open DNS witch have used for a period of time ,because have read so many good opinion about was the one I switched too from Comodo DNS after reading here on the forum many bad opinion about.
Open DNS let me down , and only the brave Comodo Dragon with his secure dns rescued me from a mistake made by Open DNS.
Once again - witch one to choose 88)
If you care about safety choose-Comodo DNS .
There is the reason Why
