HOUDINI SPLICER
so i have been trying to change the default dns servers because in my experience i have seen that this can drastically improve speed and ping times but i was shocked when i found out i wasn't even able to fiddle with the smallest settings,cos the software is more like an web app so it doesn't install a configuration setting on my computer which i can tweak around,but rather everytime i go to webpage and connect to the internet a new connection appears on my networks bar(windows 8) which i can't even disconnect from within windows let alone change settings,only thing i can do from the webpage is connect/disconnect and turn on/off lan.if any of you can help me pls,cos i haven't played multiplayer games in weeks due to bad pings,pls tell me how to change the DNS

Try changing directly from Control Panel as mentioned here


1Go the Control Panel.
2Click Network and Internet, then Network and Sharing Center, and click Change adapter settings.
3Select the connection for which you want to configure Google Public DNS. For example:

To change the settings for an Ethernet connection, right-click Local Area Connection, and click Properties.
To change the settings for a wireless connection, right-click Wireless Network Connection, and click Properties.

4.If you are prompted for an administrator password or confirmation, type the password or provide confirmation.
5.Select the Networking tab. Under This connection uses the following items, select Internet Protocol Version 4 (TCP/IPv4) or Internet Protocol Version 6 (TCP/IPv6) and then click Properties.
6.Click Advanced and select the DNS tab. If there are any DNS server IP addresses listed there, write them down for future reference, and remove them from this window.
Click OK.
Select Use the following DNS server addresses. If there are any IP addresses listed in the Preferred DNS server or Alternate DNS server, write them down for future reference.
Replace those addresses with the IP addresses of the Google DNS servers:

For IPv4: 8.8.8.8 and/or 8.8.4.4.
For IPv6: 2001:4860:4860::8888 and/or 2001:4860:4860::8844

Restart the connection you selected in step 3.
Test that your setup is working correctly; see Testing your new settings below.
Repeat the procedure for additional network connections you want to change
