How is OpenDNS Faster and More Reliable?
OpenDNS makes websites load faster because we have a global network of servers with sophisticated routing technology that enables your DNS requests to automatically go to the closest OpenDNS datacenter. Your current DNS service is likely hosted in one location and that could be far away from you.
The OpenDNS global network also eliminates annoying Internet outages because there are many servers available to respond to your requests, making it the most reliable, always-available DNS service - no matter where you are in the world.
