About OpenDNS

OpenDNS is an American company founded in July 2006 and headquartered in San Francisco. It operates as a DNS service and has been owned by Cisco Systems since its acquisition. The official website is opendns.com.
OpenDNS is a DNS resolution service owned by Cisco. When its servers have trouble, websites may load slowly or not at all, even though your internet connection is fine. This page collects user reports so you can see whether the problem is on OpenDNS's side or yours.
OpenDNS provides public DNS servers that translate domain names into IP addresses. Many people use it as an alternative to their internet provider's DNS, often for speed, filtering, or security features. Because every lookup on your device can pass through it, problems affect nearly everything you do online. Typical issues include slow name resolution, timeouts when opening websites, and login or filtering problems with the OpenDNS dashboard. Sometimes a site fails to resolve even though other sites work. First check your own setup. Make sure your device or router actually points to OpenDNS's server addresses, and try switching to another DNS service briefly. If another DNS works fine, or if many reports appear here, the fault is likely with OpenDNS itself.

Questions

Is OpenDNS down right now?

According to reports on this page, OpenDNS looks fine for most people. Isolated failures still happen — report yours if you are stuck.

When was the last mass outage?

We do not have a recorded mass outage for OpenDNS yet.

Why do websites fail to open even though my internet works?

If DNS lookups fail, your browser cannot translate site names into addresses, so pages will not load. Test with another DNS service to confirm whether OpenDNS is the cause.

How do I check which DNS servers my device is using?

Open your network settings and look at the DNS entries for your connection. On a home network, the router usually hands out these settings, so check there if your device shows your provider's defaults.
