I do suggest openDNS. They have two DNS servers and these have served
me well.... and they don't change :-). If you are in need of those
specific DNS servers from your ISP then I'm not sure what to tell you.

Primary is
208.67.222.222

Secondary is
208.67.220.220

I like them because if you have children, or you want to block certain
NSFW material, you can setup an account and it will block content you
specify. It's based on the IP so as long as your DNS lookups are routed
through openDNS servers they will block it. They claim their lookups
are faster but I don't much care about that aspect of it and it's free
also.

I've discovered the key to success is to never give up. You either
learn the right way, or you run out of ways to do it wrong. A win/win
situation!
