It doesn't matter if you're using their built in DNS or your own registered via your NC control panel, all DNS requests still go to the registrar first, then to your custom name server.
The attack is causing intermittent outages due to long DNS resolution times. Sites will work fine one minute, then fail to resolve the next, then come back again.
The attack is also affecting Google services and ISP routing w/ some carrier hops failing to respond to connection requests. The issue started sometime this past weekend and has grown since then to the point where it's becoming a serious pain in the ass.
