Hey guys,

I stumbled across this a month or so ago. It is a great feat that I finally implement 2 nights ago and it made a huge difference to my web browsing performance.

To give you an example. Every since RPTools.net moved to the new host, my reading the forums has beens a major task at times. I place those 2 little IP's in and was flying. Every site I have gone to since is a lot more responsive that it was routed through my COMCASTIC service.

You can set it up in your router or your PC. For example here I had to set it up on my PC because I do not use a fixed IP with comcast. My Linksys WCG200 does not allow me to configure DNS service unless it is a fixed IP.
