8. NOTE:

To avoid having your settings get revoked after reboots, or after periods of inactivity, you may need to make the following changes via the command line:
$ sudo cp /etc/resolv.conf /etc/resolv.conf.auto
NOTE: The dhclient.conf location may vary depending on you linux distribution.

To locate the correct file you can use:
$ sudo find /etc -name dhclient.conf

$ gksudo gedit /etc/dhcp3/dhclient.conf
# add the following line to the document before the 'require subnet-mask' command
supersede domain-name-servers 208.67.222.222,208.67.220.220;
# save and exit
$ sudo ifdown eth0 && sudo ifup eth0
You may be required to change eth0 to your own network device's name if it uses a non-standard name.
