DNS as Fast As Possible

Without the DNS, your browser wouldn't even know which website you're trying to visit! Learn all about how it works.

I love what you guys are doing. These videos help make a bigger picture for me, since I'm in the midst of my Networking education. I'm confident that it helps many others aswell. Thank you!

I had to do a presentation about this some months ago,
I spent hours researching.

And now you decide to upload a 5 min video with all the information I needed.

Man, techquickie is so awesome. I always come back to these videos and binge watch them to refresh my knowledge about all of this stuff. While drinking a beer.

7 years later, this is still one of the best explanation of the concept of DNS on YouTube.

Small correction: 404 is a HTTP status code, which requires connecting to the web server first.

Linus, thanks for all the informative videos. Can you explain the difference between DNS and NetBIOS?

[skd]

Interesting. My kid loves to fall asleep on your videos (true story) :)

I love techquickie, i learnt so much this video... I've always wondered how my browser knows to connect to a certain website...

THANK YOU SIR! I am in a class called "computer networking" and it is a 4000 level electrical/computer engineering class. It normally make me go crosseyed, but this video summed up multiple lectures in a way that made 100x more sense... Sometimes, its ok to avoid the details (unless your actually doing the engineering behind it lol).

Thank you for explaining this so exact and yet so easy

Best description on DNS I ever heard. Nice job.

Would have been great to say the pro's and cons to making your own DNS server locally on your own network at home. It is something I have been thinking about to help speed up the internet even more. If at least large parts of a site I go to every single day are local here, and just have to download what has changed.
