Re: Alternate DNS Servers???
Sure you can. You can use any nameserver that will forward queries for you. Here's the list of servers I use in my local nameserver.
204.127.198.4
216.148.227.68
204.127.202.4
63.240.76.4
204.127.198.19
216.148.227.79
63.240.76.19
204.127.199.8
216.148.227.204
204.127.204.8
63.240.76.198
I keep the list limited to nameservers on our network.
204.127.198.4 - ns1.attbi.com.
216.148.227.68 - ns2.attbi.com.
204.127.202.4 - ns5.attbi.com.
63.240.76.4 - ns6.attbi.com.
204.127.198.19 - ns7.attbi.com.
216.148.227.79 - ns8.attbi.com.
63.240.76.19 - ns10.attbi.com.
204.127.199.8 - ns11.attbi.com.
216.148.227.204 - ns12.attbi.com.
204.127.204.8 - ns13.attbi.com.
63.240.76.198 - ns14.attbi.com.
A quick ping based latency test will show you which is most responsive network-wise for you. Unfortunately, it does not show you which respond fastest to query.

| So do you use ALL of these at once? And does it use them all, or is there a priority to the list. Is the first one listed, the primary?
Is there a problem if you use one from another service provider other than Insight?
Thanks again...

| I do use them all, only because I run my own caching nameserver on my local network. You will want to select the ones closest/fastest for you.
ping /n 1 xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
Do that for each IP, take the 2-3 lowest numbers, they are the most responsive network wise to your location.
