Setting SmartDNS on your home router or TV
You can configure SmartDNS on a router to cover your whole network, or directly on a Smart TV or streaming box.
On your router (covers all devices):
- Log in to your router's admin page (usually via a web address printed on the router).
- Find the DNS settings — often under Internet, WAN or DHCP settings.
- Enter your two SmartDNS addresses as the primary and secondary DNS.
- Save and reboot the router. Every device that connects through it is now covered, with no per-device setup.
On a Smart TV or streaming box (Samsung, LG, Sony, Apple TV, Chromecast, Fire TV, PlayStation, Xbox):
- Open the network or Wi-Fi settings.
- Choose to configure the connection manually or edit DNS.
- Enter your two SmartDNS addresses.
- Save and, if needed, restart the device.
If your device won't let you set custom DNS, configuring it on your router is the easiest way to cover it.
