- For
- Minecraft Bedrock players on consoles
- Worth noticing
- The Switch guide pads each DNS octet with zeros; Xbox IPv6 may bypass the workaround, and The Hive is excluded.
Field notes
The setup changes the DNS on the console itself, with a separate walkthrough for each supported console family and instructions for undoing the change. The page specifies that the secondary DNS is essential because its own DNS only answers Minecraft queries. It also calls out an Xbox IPv6 limitation and says The Hive does not trigger the menu under the listed game version.
