I'm using the .net SDK to talk to S3, but too often I get the following exception:

The remote name could not be resolved: 's3.amazonaws.com'

I'm using the two standard OpenDNS DNS servers, and falling-back to my ISP's DNS (verizon fios). Something is up here. When I ping s3.amazonaws.com the requests time out. Thoughts on what might be going wrong or other diagnostics I can run?

Can you try other websites and Google's DNS? – digitxp Aug 25 '11 at 14:30
Other websites resolve just fine. I could try Google DNS and see if it helps...but I thought OpenDNS was supposed to be rock solid – SFun28 Aug 25 '11 at 14:36
