If you’re a Nintendo Switch user, you might be wondering how to browse the internet on your device. While the Switch doesn’t have a built-in web browser, it is still possible to surf the web using your Switch. In this guide, we’re going to show you how to do just that.

The first step is to bring up the browser, which is actually a bit hidden. Start by going to the home screen and then directly to your settings. From there, go down to Internet and select it. You need to be connected to a Wi-Fi internet, so make sure you’re connected to a network. Once you’re connected, tap “Change Settings,” and then go down to DNS server.

Your DNS server is likely set to “automatic,” but you need to change it to “manual.” To do this, click on it or select “A” from automatic. Then, change the primary DNS to 045.055.142.122. Don’t forget to put the dot in the address. Once you’ve done that, tap “OK” and then save down below.

Now you’re ready to browse the internet on your Nintendo Switch. Simply go back to your home screen and click on “News.” Then, tap on “Find Channels” and wait for the page to load. Once it’s loaded, tap “Continue to Google” and start searching.

It’s pretty simple, and you can now surf the internet on your Nintendo Switch. If you have any questions or need help, feel free to comment below. Happy browsing!
