You don't need to do anything with DNS servers. Most of us simply use one of the many available. If a DNS server is down, the easiest thing you can do is to tell your computers to use another one, and see if it is ok again. OpenDNS is a reliable free DNS provider, and that can provide us with a more reliable basis for isolating DNS-related issues.
