Enable DNS Advantage: Router DNS Change

We recommend making the change on your router so that with one change, all the computers on your network can benefit from DNS Advantage.

Summary

  1. Login to your router.
  2. Find the DNS server settings.
  3. Put in the DNS Advantage server addresses as your DNS server settings and save/apply.
1. Login to your router.

To log in and configure your router, you open it up in your web browser. If you don't know the IP address for your router, don't worry, it is typically one of the following:

http://192.168.0.1
http://192.168.1.1
http://192.168.10.1

If you have forgotten your router's username and/or password, the most common username is "admin" and the password is either blank, "admin", or "password". If none of those work, you can often reset the password to the manufacturer default by pressing a button on the router itself, or in some cases access without a password if you try to access your router quickly after you've cycled the power to it.

Look for "DNS" next to a field which allows two or three sets of numbers (these fields may be empty).  It might look like this:

Please write down your current settings before you entering the DNS Advantage addresses, just in case.

156.154.71.1
