120M Anyone with DNS issues?

Hey guys so what i think to be the problem is dns i use googles 8.8.8.8 dns doesnt seem to be responding the backup one 8.8.4.4 works and so does virginmedias but seems intermittent just wondered if anyone else has any problems

I use 8.8.8.8 as primary, open dns as secondary and 8.8.4.4 as tertiary. Where are you trying to get to and why do you think there is a problem with 8.8.8.8? The degree of fault tolerance google have must be massive.

Im guessing something gone wrong in my area i have no clue at all

Edit

0 problems with speed just resolving by the looks of it

yup, I am surprised you noticed it at all tbh because your browser should move to the secondary address before you notice anything is wrong.

yeah, it is a routing issue within VM's network. It should have been fixed by now.
