Choose the right DNS server with namebench

 We all have our favorite DNS server, but how do we know which server is the best for our location? We can use namebench to find out.


namebench is an open-source DNS benchmark utility that helps recommend which DNS servers to choose for your current location. When the benchmark process is done, it will provide you with a recommended configuration for the primary, secondary, and tertiary DNS servers to be used for your router settings.
