DNS Benchmark is a free program for Windows that helps you choose the ideal DNS for your Internet connection. DNS services speed up the connection on the web, as they can speed up the identification of the IPs of websites accessed and, thus, influence the reduction in the time to open pages. The software analyzes the main servers and defines which one delivers the best performance in each region.

The server configured by default on the machine is not always the most suitable and, therefore, the user needs to find the fastest one at the moment. Here's how to find the best DNS.
