Same here...it's definitely the DNS, and I'm not surprised that VZW wouldn't know how to reliably run one.
BTW, I'm in San Francisco but traceroutes reveal that all of my traffic (even one local to the Bay Area) goes through Dallas, TX, so the fastest DNSs are those located close to there. Check out http://www.ipaddressworld.com/ from your PDA and then do a tracert from your PC to that IP address to see where you're interconnected. |
