ISP blocking websites.. What do I do? (DNS Server question)

Okay.. So, my ISP is DNS blocking certain websites (like the one that streams free cricket online).

The sites work with OpenDNS servers but each time I switch off my modem (or after every 12 hours), I have to login into my ISP account. And OpenDNS servers doesn't take me to the login page. So, I have to reset it back to obtain DNS servers automatically in the TCP/IP settings which blocks the site again.

Anyway around this problem?

Thank You,
Sumit.

    Get a router. Configure it to use whatever DNS servers you want.

    Done.

    I use OpenDNS.

    Inside your OpenDNS account you can setup pages to be allowed on your safe list.

    Grab the ISP login domain URL & paste it into your OpenDNS safe list.

    Clear your browser history/cache & try to navigate to the login page again, while running Open DNS.

    It should work.

      Use DNSChecker by GRC to find alternative DNS servers. There are thousands out there. Try use one that is located in the country that is streaming the cricket!
