Streaming without restrictions or interruptions requires both speed and smart routing. PrivadoVPN Premium gives you access to more servers, faster connections, and advanced Control Tower features like SmartDNS, designed to make streaming smoother on all your favorite devices.
Why Premium Makes Streaming Better
With PrivadoVPN Premium, you gain access to a larger global server network optimized for streaming platforms. More servers mean less congestion and faster speeds during peak hours. You also benefit from unlimited bandwidth and higher transfer rates, giving you consistent playback quality.
Premium users also have access to Control Tower features that make streaming even more efficient. One of the most powerful tools in this suite is SmartDNS.
What Is SmartDNS?
SmartDNS is a feature within PrivadoVPN’s Control Tower that helps you stream faster by removing encryption overhead while still routing your traffic through PrivadoVPN’s secure DNS servers. Instead of fully tunneling data through a VPN, SmartDNS re-routes only the DNS requests needed to reach streaming services, reducing latency and speeding up access.
This makes SmartDNS ideal for devices that don’t support VPN apps—like smart TVs, gaming consoles, or streaming boxes—where you want faster streaming without losing access to your favorite platforms.
SmartDNS vs VPN Connection
SmartDNS is the right choice when speed is the priority—especially for high-definition or 4K streaming. When you need privacy, use your full VPN connection instead.
How to Set Up SmartDNS
Setting up SmartDNS through Control Tower is simple:
- Log in to your PrivadoVPN account at PrivadoVPN.com.
- Go to Control Tower in your account dashboard.
- Locate your Advanced DNS Configuration Options.
- On your streaming device (TV, console, or router), open the Network Settings and select Manual DNS setup.
- Enter the two IP addresses provided.
- Save and restart your device to apply the settings.
Once SmartDNS is active, your device will automatically use PrivadoVPN’s secure DNS for streaming, helping you access your favorite platforms faster and more reliably.
