Hi
My ISP DNS is leaking whether using a free VPN or not. I believe one way to prevent it is to switch to either using Google DNS or openDNS settings. Of course changing the DNS setting or using a paid VPN with DNS leak protection are other choices to prevent DNS leak.
Basing on internet reviews of Google DNS vs openDNS I'm getting mixed results.
I understand the location of the DNS servers play an important part in speeding up the opening of webpages.
So, the question is in Singapore will changing to Google DNS or openDNS settings load my webpage faster say by a few seconds over my ISP DNS? Secondly, how stable are Google DNS, open DNS vs ISP DNS?
Anybody knows whether Google DNS and openDNS servers are located here?
If speed difference is insignificant then would changing the DNS by preventing DNS leak a good choice?
Some info here
