Is it better to use ISP DNS or google?
Many times DNS makes a big performance difference in browsing the web. I prefer using a local caching DNS server, and then google or my ISPs dns servers. The ISP DNS server should be closer, so less latency. Then again, Googles DNS is likely to have more in-cache, so possibly faster to answer.
Can I use google DNS instead of ISP?
The most common is Google’s Public DNS, which use the addresses 8.8. If you trust Google less than your ISP, you can also use CloudFlare’s DNS, which claims to be the fastest and takes a privacy-first stance. The main address for it is 1.1. 1.1 , with an alternate of 1.0.
How do I override my ISP DNS?

Can DNS improve Internet speed?

How does Google Public DNS work for ISPs?
Google Public DNS can be configured to respond with REFUSED errors when clients with increased rate limits are throttled. If you need this signal, mention it in your rate limit increase request. ISPs can also configure Google Public DNS as one of several resolver services for their clients or shared caching resolvers.
Is there any advantage to using Google’s DNS servers?
Another good thing is that Google’s DNS servers validate DNSSEC, most ISP DNS servers do not. Of course, Google’s DNS servers come with extra data tracking, I don’t like using Google products because of it. OpenDNS is evil, they alter DNS responses from the authoritative answers.
Do you need local resolver for Google Public DNS?
It is also possible for ISPs to use local resolvers for client queries, and to have the local resolvers forward the queries to Google Public DNS. This may be necessary for regulatory reasons or operational ISP requirements. Most local resolvers run on ISP-managed routers, firewalls, or DSL/cable modems.
What’s the peak rate for Google Public DNS?
If you cannot do any of these, just estimate the DNS query rate. The peak rates should not count instantaneous bursts, but average traffic over one or two seconds at the busiest time of day. Google Public DNS allows short traffic bursts that briefly exceed the limit.
