DNS Setting to use local DNS

[gurucharan]

Hello Forum,

Sorry if this thread was already discussed earlier.

I am trying to use WebPageTest (WPT) for a test a webpage what uses some analytic tags and it seems like for some reason, it always uses a DNS server which is located in the US! Like even though I choose Singapore as the test origin, it come all the way to US and this causing latency issues!

The only link I was able to find about this is - https://sites.google.com/a/webpagetest.o.../scripting

Questions I have are:

1. Is this a local browser setting?
2. Can we configure it in such a way that it always uses the nearest local DNS ?
   

Cheers!
