Ποια από όλες τις services δημόσιων DNS είναι καλύτερη την ταχύτητά σας στο διαδίκτυο; Παρακάτω θα δούμε πώς μπορείτε να βρείτε το ταχύτερο DNS για να βελτιστοποιήσετε την ταχύτητα του διαδικτύου σας.

What is DNS?

The Internet Naming System, or Domain Name System (DNS), is a hierarchical naming system for computer networks that use the IP protocol. This system can and does assign service computer names to numeric (IP) addresses.

Each site has an IP address. But the IP address for each site contains too many numbers, which is impractical if you can not remember the IP address you want to visit. The DNS system allows us to refer to computers and other devices (routers), with names (domain names) and not the IP address (Internet Protocol address) which is difficult to remember and uncomfortable to use.

For example, it is easier to remember iguru.gr than 104.24.123.80.

Όταν ο ISP σας ρυθμίζει τη σύνδεσή σας στο Διαδίκτυο, uses τα προεπιλεγμένα DNS του ISP. Οι προεπιλεγμένες ρυθμίσεις DNS δεν είναι πάντα κακές, αλλά ορισμένες φορές except από το ότι είναι αργές, μπορεί να έρχονται και με περιορισμούς. Έτσι μπορείτε να χρησιμοποιήσετε μία από τις δωρεάν εναλλακτικές λύσεις DNS.

But you want a fast and stable DNS. To find the fastest DNS option, try one of the following free DNS speed controls.

What are DNS speed tests?

How do you know which DNS provider is best for your Internet connection? There are many tools you can use to test your DNS speed. Most of these DNS speed test tools are completely free and easy to use.

namebench

NameBench is a portable open source application (without installation, you can run it from a USB) running on Windows, macOS and Linux.

It can perform DNS benchmark tests on your computer using your web browser history or a standard set of test data. It will then show you the fastest DNS for your location and current connection.

Download the latest version of the tool for the operating system you are interested in. Be aware that NameBench stopped growing in 2010.

Πριν τρέξετε το NameBench, κλείστε όλες τις εφαρμογές που χρησιμοποιούν τη σύνδεσή σας στο Διαδίκτυο, γιατί μπορούν να παραμορφώσουν τα Results της δοκιμής σας.

The test with NameBench DNS will take 10-20 minutes.

GRC Domain Name Speed ​​Benchmark

Its DNS benchmarking tool Gibson Research Corporation provides a detailed analysis of your connection's optimal DNS settings. Like NameBench, you can run DNS Benchmark over a USB stick without installation. There is only one application for Windows - macOS or Linux are not supported.

DNS Benchmark is a great tool because it constantly updates its DNS list. As the DNS speed test progresses, the fastest response servers move to the top of the list.

Download and open the DNS Benchmark. Then select the Nameservers tab. Let DNS Benchmark update the list and select Run Benchmark. The first test takes a few minutes.

Στο τέλος της πρώτης δοκιμής το DNS Benchmark θα σας ανακοινώσει ότι πρέπει να δημιουργήσετε μια προσαρμοσμένη λίστα συγκριτικής αξιολόγησης DNS για να έχετε αποτελέσματα δοκιμών που αντικατοπτρίζουν με ακρίβεια το σύστημα, τη σύνδεση και τις τοπικές ρυθμίσεις σας. Αυτό συμβαίνει επειδή η λίστα των προεπιλεγμένων διακομιστών DNS είναι για τους users of the United States.

Creating a custom list takes "about 37 minutes", but the result will give you a much clearer picture of the faster DNS for your system.

DNS Jumper

DNS Jumper has many similar features to NameBench and DNS Benchmark, but tests are completed faster. This is another portable application.

In terms of speed, DNS Jumper has an option to scan and select "Fastest DNS". Once the test is complete, you can select the DNS you want, and use the "Apply DNS" button to use these settings.

Using one of the above tools will help you understand the best DNS settings for your connection. NameBench and GRC DNS Benchmark offer more thorough testing and give you the most accurate results.
