There's no need to set that up. Simply edit /etc/hosts and enter

Oh, come on Stephan... Presumably the guy wants to surf more
than a few web sites. The hosts suggestion is not an answer.
i can always count on John Andersen to counter every post i send, simply
out of principal. It's not the countering which bugs me, but the
predictable condescension certainly does.
The OP suggested that he has a handful of sites for which he has IPs:
If I try the DSL speed tests from the servers in San
Francisco or Los Angeles,
"the servers" implies a small, known set. If that is indeed the case,
the hosts file is an acceptable solution. Obviously it's not manageable
for a large number of hosts, nor for hosts which get served from a pool
(e.g., google.com).
