If you are a Streamyx user or Unifi Lite and using Riger modem, here’s how you can change the DNS server on Riger-DB120WL modem. This method works on any Riger modem router.

If you have not set the DNS manually, that means the DNS server you are using is auto-assigned by the ISP. Personally, I use Google Public DNS as it is much faster than the one provided by my ISP.

However, there’s a utility app that can help you to find the fastest DNS server around your area. Go and read how to improve internet speed with Namebench.
