Verizon DNS
May 28, 2008 – 5:59 pmTurns out Verizons DNS servers suck whether it is Fios or DSL. We have been having a flaky problem with one of the apps at a clients office, it turns out the application phones home. The problem is it wasn’t able to complete the call, but most other net requests worked. The whole proble was we were using the Qwest DNS servers listed on Verizons support page. once I switched over to 4.2.2.1 and 4.2.2.2, everything worked perfectly.
What is amazing is these problems have been documented back to 2006
and are still not fixed.
