[QUOTE="blackice, post: 1122107, member: 79035"] Something to note about the speed of DNS servers. Unless the ping is over 100, you shouldn’t notice much. There’s a lot of caching involved with DNS. The bigger issue is which servers they point you to as anycast doesn’t always get you to the most optimal servers. Quad9 regularly sends me to servers on the other side of the country for streaming services which ends up leading to more buffering. The peering servers inside my ISP are very close and fast, but I don’t hit them if I don’t use the ISP DNS. Quad9 is just an example, I actually like their service, but there’s more to routing than just DNS. [/QUOTE]
