01.Why is your Provider's DNS your biggest bottleneck?
DNS (Domain Name System) translates website names (com.br) into IP addresses. By default, Windows 11 uses your provider's servers. The problem? They are often slow, congested, and collect your browsing history to sell advertising.
Switching to a **professional DNS** (Cloudflare or Google) not only increases the 'discovery' speed of new sites but also reduces sharp ping variations (Jitter) in competitive multiplayer games.
Current Configuration: DNS over HTTPS
Windows 11 now natively supports DNS over HTTPS (DoH). This ensures that the DNS request is encrypted, preventing third parties (attackers or providers) from seeing which sites you are accessing at your network level.

02.The Benchmark of Giants (DNS 2026)
Different connections behave differently. For the global market, the best ones usually are:
1. Cloudflare (1.1.1.1): The world's largest edge network, excellent for pure latency.
2. Google Public DNS (8.8.8.8): Absolute stability in any routing.
3. Quad9 (9.9.9.9): Focused on extreme security and blocking infected sites.
