Virgin Media’s DNS servers threw a wobbly earlier this week meaning I was locked out of the Internet. When they eventually settled back down and let me in again I decided to try OpenDNS as an alternative. It’s good: fast, regular and provides convenient filtering based on the phishtank anti-phishing sites lists.

Worth looking at, even if you just make a note of their servers’ IP Addresses, just in case your main provider falls over:

• 208.67.222.222
• 208.67.220.220
