Looks like that is more suited for a network like in a school or something. What are you trying to accomplish?

the part where he or she says faster web page loading for home use

QuoteHow we're faster: Global footprint
OpenDNS has servers situated strategically at the most well-connected intersections of the Internet. Unlike your ISP, our network uses Anycast routing technology, which means no matter where you are in the world your DNS requests are answered by our closest datacenter. Anycast routing also means that you are automatically routed to our next closest datacenter in the event of maintenance or downtime. This makes your Internet faster and more reliable.
