Alternative IP method for Wi-Fi only

If your phone provides DNS 1 and DNS 2 fields, use this method for that Wi-Fi network It is standard DNS and does not enable DoT Do not put an IP in the Private DNS hostname field for mobile data or Wi-Fi If a custom Private DNS hostname is active, return it to Automatic first to use this network DNS

    IPv4 · 1185.118.15.14
    IPv4 · 2185.118.15.15

  5. If DNS can only be changed in Static mode, preserve the real previous IP and gateway values Do not invent network values

Official Android Private DNS guide

Check the connection and troubleshoot

Private DNS menu names and locations vary by manufacturer and Android version Search Settings for Private DNS if you cannot find the option Enter only dns.digitalvps.ir in the hostname field Do not put an IP address, port number or DoH URL in that field

If the hostname is correct but connection fails, the network or service may not accept DoT Restore Automatic or your previous setting and check again on another network Manual DNS for an individual Wi-Fi network uses the separate method in this guide
