@blues is there a short version of how to do this?
I guess it depends on your operating system. I use a chromebook.
If you go to google dns or the open dns site, they tell you how to add to your operating system. Literally, it is as simple as swapping a series of a few numbers.
It wouldn't have mattered for the recent P-F downtime, though.
Here's a link on google that gives info...but just google how to change dns server on "X", with "X" being your operating system.

24 hours without PF... I'm going through withdrawls
Down all day yesterday for me. Just came back about an hour ago.
Tried everything I know like clearing the temporary cache and cookies on my browser to make sure that I have the most recent version of the web page. Didn't help.
I'm glad P-F is back but waiting for the next attack from the Borg. I wonder who they assimilated this time.
1. Using these DNS servers did not save me from the site being inaccessible for the past 24+ hours...
2. Easiest way to change DNS is to log in to your home router and change them there... Typically, you log in to the router, select advanced settings then DNS... Then disable Dynamic DNS and manually enter the served IP's you want to use... For Google... 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4
Do we know what the underlying problem is for the recent craziness? DDOS? Source? Iran or Mom's Demand?
Hosting company is fucking up. I know, I know. Sorry. Spending some money tomorrow to fix this.
