I was watching some hak5 videos, where they started to talk about OpenDNS service!! they reminded me of an old account i have there!! :) so i stopped the view went straight to opendns.com logged in and configured my account added it to my router :-D and now i’m using a better , faster more reliable DNS than my own ISP <– shitty ISP
so what’s OpenDNS ?
it’s a free , closed-source DNS resolution service from opendns.com and it has two nameserver addresses
* 208.67.222.222 (resolver1.opendns.com)
* 208.67.220.220 (resolver2.opendns.com)
it has lots of filters to filter phishing attacks or adult contents , chat rooms , community websites ..etc almost more than 40 filters and it has a typo corrector.. and more features you have to discover
( for more information click here for wikipedia )
its good, its free and safe so go and use it for godsake :D
OpenDNS is great, I have used it in the past. But in Qatar , does it work this way ?
YOU –> QTEL –> OpenDNS
or is it
YOU –> OpenDNS
Yes it does work and i’m using it now,
and its works that way : You(r opendns)-> Qtel
and thanks i appreciate your comment :-P
Thanks for watching the show. OpenDNS is quite awesome, if they added a bit more advanced visualization and settings I would be a bigger fan.
;)
the services OpenDNS provide is good for a free service!
and it’ll be nice to add visualization and more customization stuff
trust me they will do it soon
