set to 'Automatic' DNS?

Post by greatleapingcrab »

Hi I can't figure out how to set DNS servers to Automatic (or if this is possible in the software)?
Usage case: work and home wifi both work best when DNS are allowed to be set automatically, but I occasionally need to switch to specific DNS for specific purposes (eg UnblockUS). So it'd be good to have an 'automatic' preset to switch back to automatically assigned DNS rather than to specifically 'work' or 'home' DNS (which are different).
thanks in advance,

You can click on Restore DNS to restore the initial DNS settings.

Thanks for the reply but that restores to the specific DNS that had been automatically set (at the time software first run?). Not the same thing and not a viable workaround (if you read the usage case).

Try version 2.00, it has the option to change DNS to automatic.
