Before you begin

Register from the same public IPv4 connection as the target device. Pause VPNs, proxies and IP-hiding services such as iCloud Private Relay before registering, and keep them paused while automatic IP updates run. A browser on mobile data or another connection registers a different address.

IP registration requires active SSTV access and a public IPv4 address. If the update is unavailable or rejected, check these prerequisites before changing device settings.

Connect to the network where the device will be used. Open your dashboard on a computer or phone on the same network and update the IP address under SmartDNS. Wait for confirmation; signing in alone is not enough. Pause any VPN while registering so you register the right network.

Record your previous DNS settings. Close the streaming app before making changes. Enter the SSTV DNS address below in the DNS field, not as the device’s own IP address or gateway.

DNS	IPv4 address
DNS	94.254.0.81

Configure

Configure SmartDNS on the device:

1. Open Settings → Network & internet → Internet/Wi-Fi. Open the connected network and its Edit/Advanced settings.
2. If DNS has separate fields, enter the SSTV DNS address above and retain automatic IP assignment.
3. If DNS requires IP settings → Static, first record the current IP address, gateway and network prefix. Reserve that address for this device in your router before using it statically. Do not guess a free address.
4. Enter the confirmed IP/gateway/prefix unchanged, and enter SSTV's DNS address in the DNS field. If both DNS fields are required, use the same address in both. Save and reconnect.
5. Check Private DNS under network settings. A custom provider hostname overrides this setup. For troubleshooting, temporarily choose Off so DNS uses the Wi-Fi setting; restore your usual privacy setting when you stop using this configuration.

This applies to Wi-Fi only. Android menus vary by manufacturer. Apps using their own DNS or location checks may behave differently.

Check

Reopen the app and try a service you use. Follow check your connection if needed and read services and limitations. SmartDNS does not give all traffic a Swedish IP and does not encrypt your connection.

After an IP change, update the address again. Use the IP update button in the dashboard.

If no websites open, restore your previous DNS settings to recover connectivity, then check the registration in your dashboard.

Undo

Restore IP settings → DHCP if you changed it, restore previous DNS and Private DNS settings, and reconnect.
