Enter the primary (DNS 1) and secondary (DNS 2) DNS settings.The value listed after Mask Bits is the one you are looking for. For any other Subnet Mask values, use this tool to calculate the number. For Subnet Mask there can be a few options: enter 24 if the Subnet Mask value you noted in Step 1 was 255.255.255.0, or 32 if the "Subnet Mask" value was 255.255.255.255.and " Gateway" values you noted in step 1. Instead of clicking Connect, click Advanced. Click on the connection again and enter your network password (SSID).Click the remote's menu button (☰) to forget this network. Go to Settings -> Network and select your Wi-Fi network.Go to Settings -> My Fire TV -> About -> Network and make a note of all the settings there (taking a photo with your phone is an easy way to do this).Note you do not need to do this if using a VPN, as DNS requests are sent through the VPN tunnel to be handled by your VPN provider.
It might be possible, however, to evade geographic restrictions on content, or even avoid throttling by your ISP, by changing the DNS settings of your Fire Stick. Using a VPN is the easiest and most effective way of spoofing your location on an Amazon Fire TV Stick (aka Firestick, but this also includes all Fire TV devices).įor more information on using a VPN on the Firestick, please see Best VPN for Fire Stick.
