crappy Interent for the past week or so

[mr bill]

J Thanks for the namebench tip. I downloaded the Linux version and ran it - takes 5 minutes or more and was initially disappointed with the result:

until I realized that there is more than one Telmex DNS server - (I hadn't noted my start point - nor did i notice right away that namebench sends back an html page with full results.)

Internet is working faster now - its not just a matter of connection speed [speedtest.net just came back with 5.31mbs] but how the connections are handled. Now next test is to see if this DNS server is more stable and my ROKU stays online.

re: Robert7's comments about where films on Netflicks are avaiable or not [which countries] I just found this which might be an asset:

The best way to get most out of your Netflix and Overplay Smart DNS subscriptions is to use them in conjunction with Moreflicks. Just go to Moreflicks , search for a movie or TV show you want to watch, and click the Netflix button next to it to see which Netflix regions it?s available in.
