Yes, I switched to specifying my home DNS servers in SP some time ago, which is problematic as it means I sometimes try to query them when traveling, and DNS fails because I don’t run public resolvers — restricted to my home LAN.

OpenDNS sounds cool but I don’t want them rewriting my HTTP (Google) traffic.

Current issue is that many services break between the wired and wireless sides. I can ping AppleTV (wired) from MBP on 802.11n, but I generally cannot see it in the lower-right of iTunes for music streaming. Apple had a supposed fix which didn’t work. Hopefully that means they know what the TC is breaking in bridge mode — something to do with broadcast and/or SLP (Bonjour) I guess. Very aggravating!

It only assigns the the TC as the DNS server. The TC appears to really stink as a DNS proxy too. Its really annoying to have DNS hang for nearly every query.

However I still can't do commands like "dig +trace slashdot.org". I may switch to my ISP's DNS server but OpenDNS for me at least has faster queries.</p> I’m having similar issues with my TC and DNS.

I used OpenDNS servers and things have improved a bit. However I still can’t do commands like “dig +trace slashdot.org”. I may switch to my ISP’s DNS server but OpenDNS for me at least has faster queries.
