What DNS do you use with your Asus/Merlin

DNSBench shows my ISP DNS servers to be consistently the fastest. However, my ISP DNS servers provide the worst quality Netflix and Amazon video streams. OpenDNS provides the highest quality streaming from my location, also better than Google DNS, even though Google tests faster with DNSBench. I guess it depends on your priorities, and you have to test to find the best DNS servers for your situation, but the fastest might not necessarily be the best, depending on your priorities.
