How to Change Your Windows DNS

Do you want to change your DNS server to Google's DNS server, or another server, but you have no idea how? Start with step 1, below.

Steps

1
Right-click on your internet connection, in the bottom-right corner near the clock. Click on Open Network and Sharing Center. If you can't see your internet icon, click the up arrow.
2
On the left panel of the Network and Sharing Center, click Change Adapter Settings.
3
Double-click on your internet connection. Then click Properties.

Click OK, then Close, then Close. You can close the other two windows as well.
