Here we'll show you how to
manually assign DNS (Domain Name Service) servers for your Internet connection
using Windows 8.
1.
Open the Control
Panel. You can either:
·
On the Start
screen, type 'Control Panel' and click on the Control Panel link
in the the search results
·
In
desktop mode, open the Charms menu, choose settings and then select Control
Panel
If you need help with either of the above steps, please
see our Windows 8 basics guide.
2.
From the
Control Panel, under Network and Internet, click View
network status and tasks.
3.
Click the
link next to Connections on the right.
This screenshot shows a wireless connection to a
Plusnet router so the link is Wifi (PlusnetWireless). If you're
using a wired connection the link will be named differently.
4.
On the
connection status window, click Properties.
5.
Select Internet
Protocol Version 4 (TCP/IPv4) from the list, then click Properties.
6.
Select Use
the following DNS server addresses, and enter:
·
Preferred
DNS server: 212.159.13.49
·
Alternate
DNS server: 212.159.13.50
7.
Finally
click OK on this and the previous windows to save your
changes.
