Post Body
After several frustrating hours trying to get Transmission to stop giving me "Connection Failed" messages, I found out that Comcast automatically blocks certain public trackers through their DNS which means some of the ISOs I'm trying to update just flat won't download through any BitTorrent client and some will download just painfully slow.
The suggested solution was switching my DNS server to use Google's instead of Comcast's. How do I go about doing that in Linux?
