I ran some tests and for some eason the DNS 1.0.0.1 runs faster than 1.1.1.1, are there any reasons for this or is it just different on different computers?

Why does it require 2 labels. Don’t get it if it is private it should work with one label right ?

Does not work

So I want to control what other people doing in my network, I think of setting DNS hosting in my router. I want to find a free DNS hosting that can do these:

1. Logging (what sites, time, how many times, etc)
2. Blocking (Since I know what sites get accessed, I’ll block the sites that I think inappropriate)
3. Knowing which computer access which site (I want to know who accessed these inappropriate sites)

I can find some DNS hosting can do 1 and 2, but I haven’t found any free service that can do 3.

Thanks!

I bricked my Linksys router in a bad flash the other day, so while I wait on a serial cable to come in to re-flash it, I’m left using my ISP (AT&T) provided router/modem combo in the meanwhile.

It works just fine, but the one issue I have with it is that there is no option to change the DNS servers. No doubt AT&T wants me to use their own servers because that makes data harvesting easy. I’m able to set custom DNS servers per device, but this has me wondering, if AT&T purposefully locks the DNS on their own hardware, how can I be sure that the custom DNS servers I specified are actually being used?

ipconfig /all correctly shows the servers that I set, but is there any way for me to tell if my router/modem isn’t overriding that when traffic passes through it?

The other reason I’m concerned about this is because when I router was working, I was using 1.1.1.1 and 1.0.0.1. It worked fine, but with just the AT&T router, I see that AT&T blocks this DNS service. So if I get my router back up and running again, how will I know that the DNS I want will actually be used?

When I ran my website on a $10 HostGator shared box, All I needed to do was set the custom name server field to ns1.hostgator.com. When I moved to a $150 dedicated server, I changed it to ns1.liquidweb.com. Now I am on a $50 VPS, and am being told that I need to set up my own name server “ns1.mysite.com”. This has confused me, and I ended up buying the Premium DNS that Godaddy offers for $2 a month. So if I have this premium DNS via Godaddy, do I still need to create my own name server, or can I just do everything from that interface. Any pros/cons to either of these methods. I have about 7 domains, but if my domain is the name server, wouldnt all those requests also burden my server?
