How to Change a DNS Host Name
The Domain Name Service server (DNS server) host name is the IP address of the DNS server that your computer is set up to use when connecting to websites. If you need to change this host name, you can do so by modifying the settings of your computer's TCP/IP section of your network connection. These changes aren't difficult to make, but it will help if you are at least moderately familiar with making system settings changes on your computer.
