How do I set up a second home network that bypasses Open DNS?

I have been having trouble downloading and streaming itunes content because I use Open DNS on my network.
There have been many posts about disabling Open DNS to solve the problem but if I do that, my internet filter goes away.
I would rather set up a second network that bypasses Open DNS and use it only for my Apple TV.
Is this possible and if so, how do I do it?
I have airport extreme base station with a second airport to extend the range, mac desktop, mac laptop, ATV, several iphones and ipads.
I'm running OS X 10.7.5.
Thanks in advance!

Are you suggesting that I go into my Airport router settings and just blank out the DNS settings and then reboot it?
Yes, exactly. You can always input those addresses again, if it does not solve the problem.
OpenDNS may offer some advantages over your whatever your ISP uses for DNS but optimizing download speed is not one of them.
Maybe I have jumped to the conclusion that Open DNS is the problem when maybe it isn't.
It is possible. As I understand it, Apple's servers attempt to use a location near you to deliver iTunes content, and OpenDNS may result in pointing it to a less ideal location.
3 hours may or may not be normal for HD movie. The download speed depends on a number of factors that are difficult to surmise without knowing details about your network and your ISP.

    How do I set up a second I cloud ID so that 2 family members can use the same I Pad?

    To change a secondary account to a primary account do the following:
    Tap Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars.
    Delete the secondary account.  (This only deletes if from your iPad, not from iCloud)
    Tap the Back button.
    Tap iCloud.
    Delete the primary account. (This only deletes it from your iPad, not from iCloud.  Your son's iPad will not be effected by this.)
    Add the secondary account that you want to be your primary account.

  • How do i set up a second display for my iMac desktop?  I want to use both displays at the same time.

    how do i set up a second display for my iMac desktop?  I want to use both displays at the same time.  My iMac is the 24" Late 2006 model.  I recall that there is a cord for plugging in a second monitor, but I want to make sure that i can use both monitors side-by-side at the same time.  thank you.

    If the Display supports DVI, then you will need a > Mini-DVI to DVI Adapter and a DVI cable.
    If the Display only supports VGA, then you wiil need a > Mini DVI to VGA Adapter and a VGA cable.
    Noting that the (digital) DVI is far better than the (analog) VGA connection.

  • HT204053 How do I set up a second Apple ID?  Our office wants to use the iCloud calendar, but I don't want to use my personal Apple ID.

    How do I set up a second Apple ID to use iCloud?  My office is going to use the iCloud calendar on our PCs and I don't want to use my personal ID.  Thanks for any suggestions.

    You really don't want to do that, operate an iPad with 2 different ID's.
    I'm presuming you have a work iPad and you want to put some non work bought apps on it. You will have issues, like half the iPad not working while the other half does.
    Probably not something you want to explain to your IT department.

    How do I set up a second iPod Touch account on my computer? Am having trouble.

  • HT4436 How do I set up a second iCloud email account?

    How do I set up a second iCloud email account?

    Well Roger , it may not be particularly difficult for you it is quiet clear that for several thousand people who managed to find the time to seek out help for these devices and programs that the manufacturer is unable or unwilling to provide it is at the very least "difficult"! If we are to tally up the amount of questions and inquiries posted on this one help site, I shudder to think of the size of the iceberg of inoperative functions and thus lost revenue to all those people , company's that like me have found things "difficult "! Last summer I created a "I cloud " address in a hurry while in dep lounge LHR
    And now wish to change as above is reputed to be used by notorious thugs who assault seniors on streets and post result on Web, useing same letters that I had hastily typed prior to Flt over pond. Alas like you I am now aware of the inability of changing address and thus wish to create " alias" to at least hide offending letters . The can of worms gets  more difficult as my main comp is an antique HP  windows 7 on which I have installed Apple  control panel ! Thus I get duplicate mail on an MSN Acc plus Hot mail that is still unable to decide if it wants to be known as "Outlook " or not? All the folders created by me for "HotMail " will show up with some persuasive tapping but will not allow the release to view their contents? If I click on "cloud mail" "no mail" message  is shown! I can deposit info /file in Cloud mail "archive" but only if I navigate to " Mail box Accounts" first ? If I want to create a file , no facility seems to be available ? So info/files that warrant saving /filing are left flagged ,sloshing about in the InBox or stuffed into over burdened  "Cloud Account!
    I have tried to follow instructions in Apple Corp official instructions ,both I Pad and Cloud and am unable to locate the term "preferences" as no "Action pop up menu * has shown itself! thus I am unable click "Accounts" or "add an Alias" !
    I must confess I have been very rude to the Micro Soft people in the past for my inability to grapple with their system , but now think perhaps I am the problem as Parkinson's will affect cognitive  function?...... Your remark re expecting "free" mail box features in my opinion is a bit like the car salesman saying " No Sir, that is the price for the car , the oil ,
    Anti freeze , trans fluid , battery acid are all extra!!??..... Carry on London!!!!

  • How do i set up a second email account on my 1st generation ipad

    I have an apple 1st generation ipad. How do I set up a second email account??? Please help

    You need to ask your mail provider for the setup info.  Usually it can be found on ther website in their help pages or the like for most email providers.
    If its a known service like hotmail, or gmail, there are preset options for those that fill in the required server info.
    If its a corporate email, the IT department should have this information.

  • How can I set up a wi-fi network, using one time capsule and two airport express

    how can I set up a wi-fi network, using one time capsule and two airport express ?
    The time capsule is near the Mac. ok
    The first Airport is on the corridor, ok, works well and the App on the iPad signals so, ok
    But when I plug the next Airport on another room nearby nothing happens, and signals disconected ....
    is the signal so weak that is not able to go to ono room to the other ?

    Well, even if you have the first express set up to extend the network, the second express can only extend from the TimeCapsule.
    Maybe you got walls of sheetrook in the way, or kitchen/bathroom tiles, etc, dampening the signal rapidly.

  • How can I set up an SMS group so that all group members can dial a group number and have a text sent out to all members of the group

    How can I set up an SMS group so that all group members can dial a group number and have a text sent out to all members of the group
    This would be an SMS group similar to an email listserv but running on the SMS network
    I have seen private individuals offering this service
    It seems strange to me that no internet site like Apple, Yahoo or Google offers this as a free service much as the email group services are free services.
    Steve

    I think the app GroupMe might do what you want. You might also try contacting your carrier. My carrier offered some fancy group texting service for a while but they never really advertised it so, unless you asked, you never would have known. But, GroupMe is available in the app store. There are lots of other apps that also do group texting but it seems to be the one that gets recommended the most.

  • How can I set a password for firefox so that everyone have to enter the password before executing firefox

    My younger sister executed my firefox just at this afternoon(she originally use IE), and she saw something that can't be seen. How can I set a password for firefox so that everyone have to enter the password before executing firefox?

    Also see this for an English version of Profile Password:
    *Profile Password: http://nic-nac-project.de/~kaosmos/profilepassword-en.html#PPF
    It is an extension to protect the profile with a password, but being an extension that protection can easily be bypassed by starting Firefox in [[Safe mode]].<br />
    So do not rely on it.<br />
    If you want to protect content then you have to use methods supported by the OS like a separate user account with a password or an encrypted file system.
