in theory

in the real life you have no control of the order in
whci namesvers from /etc/resolv.conf are used and mostly
theay are all get the request and the faster response is used

mixinig different dns-views leads to rendamloy get different
results and if your ISP's namesevrer is a crap with unstrustable
responses for NXDOMAIn you are playing games with your network

   It looks like it is random ... I took all the dns server addresses
   out of the router leaving only 127.0.0.1. That leaves my local dns
   plus whatever Viasat uses which is terribly slow today. I never saw
   anything like this before.

   Some sites have a bunch of look ups, like "weather.com" which I have
   been testing with because it does a lot of them. It is obvious when
   it hits the ISP dns server and sits there for 20 - 30 seconds, maybe
   more worst case, the local is instantaneous. I can't be certain but
   that's how it looks to me based on what you have told me ...

   I rebooted this computer just to be safe and shows resolv.conf:

       [bobg@box7 ~]$ cat /etc/resolv.conf
       # Generated by NetworkManager
       nameserver 192.168.1.1
       nameserver 127.0.0.1
       nameserver 184.63.128.68

   I guess that's ok? The last one is the ISP dns, or at least I don't
   think I have that entered anywhere. 192.168.1.1 is presently a
   Buffalo wireless router running dd-wrt. It is the dhcp server.

   A call to Wildblue tech support produces a warning of long wait
   times. I guess there are others complaining. I wont learn anything
   there today except that they are probably swamped with complaints.

   Thanks,

   Bob
