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.

Note:

Before we start, you should know a couple of things about how iOS handles DNS. First, these instructions only work for Wi-Fi connections – iOS does not allow you to change the DNS servers when connected to cellular/mobile networks. Also, the changes are network-specific, so you’ll need to change the DNS servers every time you connect to a new wireless network. The good thing is that iOS remembers the settings, so you won’t have to do anything the second time you connect to a network.

Step 1
