How to set up DNS on macOS
Please note that this guide is for setting up Smart DNS. If you prefer you can alternatively install our VPN app, which will give you access to all the same channels as Smart DNS. Simply connect to any VPN server and you will automatically be able to unblock all the channels supported by Smart DNS. This happens via Unlocator Hybrid.
Please see the video below to set up Unlocator Smart DNS or follow the step-by-step instructions.
