Using openDNS to make internet Faster!
I have used this trick, and I am really impressed with it 
first of all, disconnect from internet.
Right click on connections icon at the upper panel, go to "Edit Connections".
You will see some tabs, namely wireless, wired, broadband.. etc.
Choose your connection type (The one that you use) and then choose the connection you use to connect to internet.
Click on Edit. you will see something like this:

Go to the tab called IPv4 settings. In the method drop down box, choose Automatic (DHCP) address only.

In DNS Servers box, write 208.67.222.222, 208.67.220.220
it will look like this now:

Click on apply and ok,you might be prompted for password. Enter and hit ok.
Now connect to internet, and go to terminal.
type
if everything is done perfectly, you will see something like:

cat /etc/resolv.conf
