  2. Press and hold on the Wi-Fi network you want to change

  3. Choose Modify network

    Android: Wi-Fi list
  4. Scroll down and click on Advanced options

    Android: Advanced options
  5. Scroll down and click on DHCP

    Android: Select DHCP options
  6. Click on Static

    Android: Select static DHCP options
  7. Scroll down and change the DNS server IP for DNS 1 (the first DNS server in the list)

Change DNS server with Third-Party App

If the above does not work for you or you just want another App that makes it even easier to change DNS settings, you can search the Playstore for many available DNS changer Apps. They also work on non-rooted Androids.
