I was using the following one untill it totally stopped working on my pc

203.94.243.70 and 59.179.243.70

Someone care to share more....

Right now on opendns...and i know those buggers will come as i have started heavy download and will come to say see your net is working and u blaming us
 
buddy the option is to use Open DNS. it responses much faster than other isp's dns servers and never blocks any website. :hap2:

settings are:

pref dns: 208.67.222.222
alt dns : 208.67.220.220
 
One more vote for OpenDNS. Totally awesome. The You Telecom DNS is also pretty good and fast, though it does go down a lot.

Here's a list, I think it came off the India Broadband forum which I've copied and kept. Rotating DNS is a good idea.

At my office using bsnl bb cant torrent . . Is it due to dns . . The speed is good and even got torrent seeds but dont download even anything at al . . Can there be some solution . .

I tried utorrent and fdm . .
 
DNS has nothing to do with torrent clients, it's only used for browsing. The problem is either a blocked or improperly forwarded port, so try a new thread for that.

DNS is a server that resolves a hostname (like Yahoo!) to a real IP address (64.12.2.4). Since it is impossible for your computer to physically track all the possible sites on the 'net, the browser first connects to a DNS server, which returns the IP that the computer needs to go to. The browser takes it from there.

Open DNS is a DNS server that is not tied to any ISP, so if you tell your PC to, it will look up Open DNS instead of the default DNS servers set up by your ISP. It may not be always possible to refer Open DNS, for example in office networks which block IP range requests.

Technically, any DNS server can be accessed by any computer on the internet, so if you have a MTNL connection and wish to use the VSNL DNS servers, you can - all you need is to set the DNS address in TCP/IP properties.
 
need clarification u said torrent has nuthin to do with dns...but in my case that wasnt working......so i m still confused even after your clarification
 
which modem are u useing?

is it D-link 502t?

i am useing that too

few days back i got a call from mtnl saying that they are banning d-link modems
 
The torrent files are essentially a list of IP addresses and file chunks. They don't even access DNS. If the DNS server is down, P2P still works.

At least for me :)
