The answer is different for each network or provider. My ISP is Comcast in Portland, Oregon. My DNS hosts are different than my neighbor on Verizon, so there is no way for us to answer your question.
If you need your specific information you can obtain it through your ISP. If you just need DNS, Google has free public DNS at 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4
