Tips Using OpenDNS for Accelerating Browsing

Tips Use OpenDNS for Accelerating Browsing
Browsing speed is determined by many factors such as the distance between your computer and the server computer where the website is located, the size of the pages that must be downloaded to the browser, the quality control that you use, the quality of your Internet Service Provider (ISP) and the speed of the process on your computer. So with the above factors will increase your browsing speed would be even better.
Here we want to discuss about the factors of quality control that you use. DNS or Domain Name System is a naming system on the internet for all connected components such as computers, Internet services and other network components. This system allows us to use the domain name to access a server on the internet. Surely it would be more difficult for us to remember series of numbers as the address of the website.
Example when you type the "detik.com" then your computer asks the DNS server on the IP address of the "detik.com". Computers need to know the IP address because the number is more easily understood by computer systems that use the data bits. After getting the IP address of the DNS Server computer then you will understand with certainty the destination computer addresses so they can access it. So the user's DNS system to bridge the Internet with a computer network that uses language that is different from human language.
If you already know the IP address of the website you want to open, then you can type the IP directly in the location / URL of your browser. Here we do not need to contact the DNS server to ask the IP address of the website because we already have it. Examples for "detik.com" IP address "203.190.241.43".
The quality of the DNS Server greatly affect your browsing speed. If the DNS server you use slow in processing your requests or farther away from your computer then it can certainly slow down your browsing speed. By default we use the control that comes from your Internet Service Provider (ISP) we like StarOne, Telkom flash, etc. telkomnet.
But often the DNS server provided by our ISP are less qualified so many consumers who complained about the slow access to browse to a website. For that we have tips to speed up browsing using OpenDNS. OpenDNS is a free DNS server that can be used by all Internet users in the world.
