Salam Ali I think you are going about this the wrong way. If your ISP DNS servers are giving you problems then why not use a different set of DNS servers that are not operated by your ISP?
opendns.com comes to mind in this case but of course you can use any set of DNS servers including those of your other ISP in different countries . Of course distance and latency will affect their reply time. put 208.67.222.222 and 208.67.220.220 in your /etc/resolv.conf or in your Netowrk>TCPIP conf on the other OS you may be using. Asking for IPs of major internet sites is not the right way to do this. Let me know if this works for you in Yemen. As for the obvious question of YEMEN? I will leave that to your discretion.
