7. Delete the current DNS SERVERS, and enter the new DNS SERVERS. (If you enter more than one DNS server, be sure sure to separate the servers with commas.)


To use OpenDNS, enter 208.67.222.222 and 208.67.220.220


To use Google DNS, enter 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4

If you're using OpenDNS, visit the OpenDNS test page.
