Has anyone attempted to make DNS changes to devices such as: Apple TV, Fire TV, NAS devices (I have a Drobo), Amazon Echo/Alexa devices, Kindle eReaders (not the tablet but the eInk readers), etc.?Īlso, I’m a little confused on OpenDNS’s chart here. My ISP likely won’t flip my router DNS to OpenDNS since they prefer their servers, so I’d have to make the flips at the device level. However, I’m wondering if I’d still see slightly better performance, as well as overall better security (since I am not sure how my ISP handles security on their DNS servers) by going back to OpenDNS.

There haven’t been any major issues with them (although my ISP speeds have been slow in general due to congestion they’re working to alleviate). Now that my ISP cloud-manages my network with Cambium networking gear, they have everything set to their own DNS servers. In the past when I managed my own network with Cisco networking gear, I always used OpenDNS for my DNS, and it was generally rock-solid and speedy.
