DNS uses very little bandwidth, I would guesstimate well under 1k for a full DNS query and response.

But for you googlers, I'm sure you can find a DNS server that is publicly available.

Do this... Go to start, run, type "CMD."

At the prompt type "nslookup" <enter>

Ignore anything that it says... At the new prompt type in the IP address of the DNS server you found, hit enter.

If it looks like it connected then good. Type "www.planetside-universe.com" without the quotes and hit enter. If it resolves to 69.31.7.50 then you are golden, next try "www.google.com" just to make sure it is resolving lots of stuff.

Once someone finds an open DNS server that allows queries you will be all set.
