I periodically have problems with slow loading pages on ATOT (and other sites, especially iTunes trailers). So, I decided to do an experiment and run half a day on Googles dns and half on Comcasts.


Well, there is a definite improvement on Googles DNS.

Just an FYI and to ask if anyone has any other DNS servers I can use other than Google, since Googles privacy policies are not the best.

Thanks.

what browser are you using?

I really wish AT wasn't so slow on FF. I use Chrome only because forum browsing is too slow on FF

I use OpenDNS, but that shouldn't affect page loads. Once the DNS server has resolved the ip address, it's work's done, and it's up to other variables to make your page load quickly.

I don't know why either, but it does happen. btw just switched to openDNS quoted above and also seems faster than Comcast.

Techs, we record every single site you visit via your DNS queries. This also allows us to record domains you e-mail.

Your friends at Comcast.
