How to Find and Test Fastest DNS Server

How to Test Fastest DNS Server For Internet Access

As I explained in previous articles about Alternative DNS list, many public DNS that we can use to form the solution Substitute Internet Provider DNS Server that we use. But we can not know the IP DNS server which is the fastest that we will use of the many Public DNS is available.
For that we need to do a test between IP DNS server we want to use to access the Internet so much faster and stable. One way to find the fastest DNS is using Open Source software tool that is Namebench DNS Benchmark utility.
Download Software Tool DNS Benchmark utility is at:
http://code.google.com/p/namebench/
or its direct link at
Software Namebench-1.3.1-Windows.exe
Run this software with your Internet access connected state, then click start to start the search and test DNS is most suitable for your Internet Provider.




The time needed for the seeker DNS and DNS servers as well as search for where the most good for our sets on our internet connection settings about 15-20 minutes.
After the test is finished it will exit the result list of DNS is the best for your location and provider we use. As follows:



From the list above then we can see that the sequence from the top is the control of the fastest and recommended that we set and use to control our internet access.
We refer to the table and ignore the DNS Server: IP 192.168.1.1 because this is our Modem IP communications. And check the list / table other than IP.
Suppose we get a recommendation next DNS is best

202.43.160.50 ns1.dtp.net.id
Nah ...IP 202.43.160.50 our input and set as Primary / Preferred DNS server.
But we need to find a partner to our DNS server is set as Scondary / Alternated DNS server.
Steps to finding a partner we can use DNS Tool Hostname to IP following manner:
We assume / expect ns1.dtp.net.id : 202.43.160.50 pair is ns2.dtp.net.id Well for that we are looking for this ns2.dtp.net.id IP hostname.
Open website Aruljohn and use the Hostname to IP tool:
http://aruljohn.com/hostname2ip.html
Input ns2.dtp.net.id and click find

And will be out the results where the IP to ns2.dtp.net.id is :
202.43.160.51
So we've got the best IP DNS servers are:
Primary / Prefered DNS Server : 202.43.160.50
Secondary / Altenate DNS Server : 202.43.160.51

Do Setting DNS server on the internet connection / modem your internet, for setting / changing DNS servers can be an article about alternative DNS Internet at:
List DNS Server and Alternate DNS Server Setting
For those of you who use ADSL internet access such as for example you use the internet access Telkom Speedy DNS you need to enter into the settings and restart your ADSL modem connection or restart the ADSL modem.
To enter the settings your ADSL modem with broser open and go to page:
http://192.168.1.1/
It will open access to your ADSL modem settings. For setting the DNS on a wide range of menu ADSL modem, ADSL modem is different because each different display menus.
Each time a DNS lookup results will be the fastest fluctuations, because of the busy DNS servers are changed to change every time. So try as often as you update DNS server you use.
