How to change the DNS settings on Mac OS X is not as hard as you may think - and only take a few minutes to change! Our easy to follow tutorial describes how to change the DNS settings on Mac to avoid slow speeds, more changeable DNS on Mac can also unlock some sites.
DNS stands for "Domain Name System". Without it, you have to remember the IP address of each site you want to visit instead of just the site or the domain name. So instead of just remember "google.com" you must enter 193,105,163,249. it is like an address book, instead of having to remember your friends mobile phone number, simply remember their name.
Using the DNS server of your Internet server provider (most homes have this set "Automatic") can give you slow speeds and can also block the . access to certain websites
We recommend using OpenDNS instead of other DNS servers However, here is a list of DNS servers, you can use:.
OpenDNS: 208.67. 222,222 and 208.67.220.220
GoogleDNS: 8.8.4.4 + 8.8.8.8
please note: When connecting our VPN service, you're automatically using OpenDNS. Changing the DNS settings of your LAN Adapter / WLAN does not change this, because the DNS settings applied alone affect your (non-VPN) "normal" and the prevention of possible DNS leaks when using VPN (in if fallback).
to change the DNS settings for the VPN connection, they must be applied to VPN adapters (eg Windows: OpenVPN = TAP adapter, PPTP = hmavpn connection), or by adding the line "dhcp-option DNS 8.8 .4.4 "in a profile .ovpn *)
