How to set up Smart DNS on Samsung Smart TV

Follow the instructions step-by-step to set up Smart DNS on Samsung Smart TV.

1. Validate your IP Address.

   If you have validated your IP address, skip this step and go to part II of this tutorial.

   1. Sign in to your Client Area.
   2. Go to “Packages”.
   3. Choose your package.
   4. Choose the “Smart DNS” tab.

   5. Click the “Validate IP” button (1).
      Please go to part II of this tutorial if you see the “Your IP address has been validated!” message.

      

      Another option is: validate your IP addresses instantly through “Validate IP Link” (2). By choosing this option you don’t have to sign in to your Client Area each time you want to validate the IP address. By adding this link to your browser favorites/bookmarks your IP address will be validated each time you load this URL into your browser.

       

      If our service is not functioning, please validate your IP address again by following steps 1-4. Your IP address have to be validated every time it changes.

       

       

      It is important to not share the Validate IP Link with anyone! It is particular and unique for every single client. If you give or share it with other people, your Smart DNS service won’t be working.
