Increase Internet Speed by Changing DNS setting

Here I am writing about how to increase your internet speed, specially I am writing about Tata Photon Plus+ but it work with almost all data card I personally check with Airtel, Aircel and Reliance net connect with this method. I am giving out two method here I am only discussing about method to increase internet speed by Changing DNS setting.

You might thinking how its possible, it is possible only by changing your DNS setting to Google’s Public DNS server addresses. Still not getting, if you are a geek, am sure you’d have figured it out already. But if you are a non-technically inclined person, this post is for you. The sloth-like speed of Tata Photon+ connection is due to the default DNS servers. So the tweak is setting your DNS to 8.8.4.4 and the alternate DNS to 8.8.8.8, which are Google’s Public DNS server addresses.

IN WINDOWS

Open Control Panel –> Network and Internet –> Network and Sharing Center –> Change Adapter Settings
Right Click on your Tata Photon+ Connection –> Properties
Move to Networking Tab
Double Click Internet Protocol Version 4
In the second fieldset, change to “Use the Following DNS server addresses”.
Preferred DNS server  : 8.8.4.4 and Alternate DNS server : 8.8.8.8

Click OK and Reconnect.

 IN Ubuntu

Click the Network Connections icon on the right hand side tray of Ubuntu Desktop.
Choose “Edit connections”
Change to “Mobile Broadband” –> Choose the Tata Photon+ Connection and click “Edit”
Then it might ask for your password. Enter it.
Change the Method to “Automatic (PPP) addresses only”
Set DNS servers to 8.8.4.4, 8.8.8.8

Click Save and Reconnect.

Note: If you don’t find any improvement after the change, then may be Google Public DNS is not the one for you. I request with my other method.
