Requirements

To set up the Smart DNS you will need:

  1. 1. A SmartDNS account. If you are not a current subscriber sign up here.
  2. 2. Your DNS addresses. You can find them under the Control panel on our website.

Note:

To unblock streaming services with our SmartDNS service, you have to register your IP address. Check out how to update your IP address under the Control Panel here.


Step 1

Unfortunately, we aren’t able to manually change DNS settings directly on the Google Chromecast streaming device. That’s why you should setup our SmartDNS app on your router first.

Check out our manuals to do so.

 

Step 2

Since all the Chromecast streaming devices are programmed to communicate with Google DNS servers, namely 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4, the next important step is to block access to Google DNS from the router. Otherwise, you won’t be able to unblock any US and EU streaming services.

Contact our support and we will help you bypass this blocking based on what equipment you have.
