Troubleshooting

How to fix DNS4EU not working

DNS4EU is up on our end, so if it won't work for you, the problem is most likely on your side. Work through these in order:

Your browser tries to reach joindns4.eu over your own connection, right now. Nothing is sent to us or stored.

  1. Check the DNS4EU status page

    Open https://status.joindns4.eu/ first. If the service side reports trouble, wait for that to clear because local fixes will not help while it is down.

  2. Flush DNS after a DNS4EU change

    Flush the cache before you change more settings, since stale answers can survive a resolver switch. In Windows Command Prompt, run ipconfig /flushdns; in macOS Terminal, run sudo dscacheutil -flushcache and sudo killall -HUP mDNSResponder.

  3. Remove DNS4EU from device DNS

    Remove hand-entered DNS4EU resolver addresses and let the device get DNS from the network again. On Windows 11, open Settings > Network & internet > Wi-Fi or Ethernet > Hardware properties > DNS server assignment > Edit and choose Automatic (DHCP); on macOS, open System Settings > Network > Wi-Fi or Ethernet > Details > DNS and remove the custom entries.

  4. Test DNS4EU on a second device

    On iOS, open Settings > Wi-Fi > the info button for your network > Configure DNS and choose Automatic. If the same site fails on another device on the same Wi-Fi, log in to the router admin page and remove any DNS4EU addresses from its Internet or DNS section while you retest one device.

While DNS4EU is down: what to use instead

  • Cloudflare DNS Set it on a phone or router when the usual resolver stops answering.
  • Google Public DNS A good fallback for a home network because you can enter it once in the router and every connected device uses it, which saves you from changing settings on each device.
  • Quad9 Use it when you want a public resolver that blocks known malicious domains.
  • OpenDNS This helps on a home network where you want filtering; change the router's DNS so the whole house gets the same resolver, and you do not have to touch each device.

Fix DNS4EU on Windows, Mac, Android and iPhone

DNS4EU on Windows

Fix
If DNS4EU is not working on Windows, open your Network Connections properties and switch your DNS settings back to automatic or an alternative provider. You can also try flushing your DNS cache to clear outdated lookup data.
Check
To check if DNS4EU is down on Windows, see if websites fail to load while direct IP addresses still work. You can also test if the DNS4EU server IPs respond to ping requests.
Command Prompt
ping joindns4.euTest whether DNS4EU's servers reply
nslookup joindns4.euCheck that DNS4EU's DNS resolves
tracert joindns4.euTrace where the connection drops
ipconfig /flushdnsClear the DNS cache, then reload

DNS4EU on Mac

Fix
Fix DNS4EU issues on macOS by opening System Settings, selecting Network, and removing the DNS4EU server IPs from your DNS configuration. Clearing the system DNS cache can also help restore connectivity.
Check
Determine if DNS4EU is down on a Mac by checking if web browsers fail to resolve domain names while the DNS4EU servers are active. If switching to your ISP's default DNS restores browsing, DNS4EU is offline.
Terminal
ping -c 4 joindns4.euTest whether DNS4EU's servers reply
nslookup joindns4.euCheck that DNS4EU's DNS resolves
traceroute joindns4.euTrace where the connection drops
sudo dscacheutil -flushcache; sudo killall -HUP mDNSResponderFlush the macOS DNS cache, then reload

DNS4EU on Android

Fix
If DNS4EU is not working on Android, go to your Connection settings and turn off Private DNS or set it back to automatic. Toggling Airplane mode can also reset your network interface.
Check
To check if DNS4EU is down on Android, see if you lose internet access only when the DNS4EU private DNS host is enabled. If disabling it restores your connection, the service is currently down.

DNS4EU on iPhone and iPad

Fix
To fix DNS4EU on iOS, go to your Wi-Fi settings, tap your network, and change the DNS configuration from manual back to automatic. If you installed a DNS4EU profile, temporarily remove it from your device management settings.
Check
Check if DNS4EU is down on iOS by disabling your custom DNS profile or switching to automatic DNS; if websites load only after making this change, the DNS4EU servers are experiencing an outage.
About

What happens when DNS4EU goes down

DNS4EU is a public DNS resolver from an EU-backed project, and people and small IT teams point routers and devices at it as a European alternative to their ISP's default DNS. An outage interrupts name resolution for those devices, so new web pages and app logins can fail even when the underlying internet connection is fine.

The first sign is usually a failed DNS lookup: your browser says the server cannot be found, and an app cannot reach its sign-in server. Cached addresses keep some traffic moving until they expire, so sites you already visited may load while new domains fail. Trouble can hit one region or one network path while other areas keep resolving names, so the service can look down in one area and fine in another. Check the official status page for incident notes, and switch your router or device to a backup resolver if lookups keep failing.

Questions

DNS4EU FAQ

Is DNS4EU down right now?
The status at the top of this page shows whether user problem reports for the service are above their usual level, counted in 15-minute windows across the last 24 hours. Those reports come from users to a public outage-reporting service; a quiet chart only means nobody has complained. For the operator's own word, check the official status page at status.joindns4.eu. To rule out your side, try another device on the same Wi-Fi and the same device on mobile data; if either one loads the sites, the trouble is local to your network or your DNS settings.

One site fails while the rest of the web loads. Is that an outage?
Probably not. The service runs filtered resolver addresses next to unfiltered ones, and a filter profile can block a domain it has flagged, which looks like a dead site rather than a slow one. Switch your device to the unfiltered address and reload; if the page appears, the block came from the filter, not from the resolver being down.

How do I point my router or phone at DNS4EU?
You change the DNS server entries, nothing else. On Android the field is Private DNS; on a router you edit the WAN DNS entries and reboot so the new resolver is picked up. Use the addresses published on the project's own site rather than numbers from a forum post, because a typo there leaves you with a device that resolves nothing.

Does it work with DNS over HTTPS and DNS over TLS?
Yes, encrypted endpoints exist for both, and a phone that supports Private DNS or DoH will use them once you enter the hostname instead of an IP address. Plain DNS still works for older routers with no encrypted option. If your router only accepts IP addresses, put the plain resolver there and set encryption on the devices themselves.

I changed my DNS and now every page fails. How do I get back online?
Set DNS back to automatic, or to your ISP's resolver, then reconnect the network; that gets you online while you work out what went wrong. The usual cause is a mistyped address, or an encrypted hostname typed into a field that wants an IP. If only one device is affected, forget the Wi-Fi network and join it again, since some phones keep the old setting cached.

How we track DNS4EU

The status on this page comes from user-submitted problem reports for DNS4EU, counted in 15-minute windows over the last 24 hours. Each window is compared with the normal level for DNS4EU, so a few complaints on a quiet day don't trigger anything, but a sudden jump well above normal does.

When reports climb well above normal, the status here changes to partial outage or major outage and the chart moves with it. This is separate from DNS4EU's official status page: user reports tend to show a problem early, while the official page confirms the cause. If the two disagree, check both.
