DNS Server

Can using other DNS Servers like OpenDNS show significant changes to service?

 

You bet. I prefer Google's DNS servers of 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4. I doubt where Sprint's servers are would make much of a difference but I would bet that they would be slower and more problematic then Google's.

 

There was a big East Coast outage where a specific model of card could not get to any webpage unless you used its IP address. Sprint took a couple of weeks to find and fix that so I just changed people to Google.

Have you tried any other DNS Servers such as OpenDNS?
