yup, I have had google (8.8.8.8) set as primary for years, then open dns and then google again (8.8.4.4) and never ever had any dns issues. In contrast, you'll find tonnes of users on here with shubs whining their internet is broke because VM's dns servers have gone down for hours at a time. In case you didn't know, there isn't an option on the shub to change your dns server and you are forced to use VM's. This is one of the many reasons I always say to people "buy a proper router". The EA4500 renowned for being a superb router.
