In the 'DNS server address' field, enter the IP address of the DNS server (in our example, it is a public DNS server from Google 8.8.8.8) and then click 'Save'.

Importante

The logic behind Keenetic's DNS is that requests are sent to all DNS servers at its disposal, including both those obtained from an ISP and those manually entered. And the answer is used from whichever DNS server comes fastest.

Suggerimento
