iPhone and iPad
Configure SSTV SmartDNS on an iPhone or iPad Wi-Fi network
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
- Open Settings → Wi-Fi and tap the information button beside your connected network.
- Select Configure DNS → Manual.
- Record existing servers, remove them for this configuration, and use Add Server to enter the SSTV DNS address above.
- Tap Save, reconnect to Wi-Fi, and reopen the streaming app.
Leave Configure IP unchanged. This setting applies only to the selected Wi-Fi network, not mobile data. A VPN, installed encrypted-DNS profile or Private Relay may bypass it or alter the address registered with SSTV. Temporarily pause conflicting services while checking the connection.
App availability can depend on your Apple Account region. Playback can also depend on the app's location checks and subscription. DNS settings do not change these requirements.
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
Choose Configure DNS → Automatic, or restore your earlier manual DNS servers. Restore any privacy services you paused.
