DNS, or domain name system, is the internet protocol that turns human readable website names
(such as sordum.org) into machine readable numeric addresses. In some cases, you can
improve browsing speed and/or improve your security by replacing the DNS provided by your
internet service provider. DNS Jumper is a tool which makes this easy for you.
Why you should use DNS Jumper:
1. It can aid in accessing blocked websites
2. It can improve security by changing to more secure DNS servers
3. It can help keep your children safe by blocking inappropriate websites (e.g. adult material) by
selecting a Family Safe DNS server.
4. It can speed browsing by moving to a faster DNS server
5. Changing DNS servers manually can be done, but DNS Jumper greatly simplifies the process

DNS Jumper 2.1 has some new and important features, such as Turbo Resolve which can apply
the fastest DNS at startup. DNS Jumper is freeware, and portable (no installation needed).

What is new: (Tuesday , 17. March 2020)

the ‘Apply DNS’ button.

Find Information About the Preferred and Alternate DNS


The “magnifying glass” button on the far right of the main window opens a menu that allows you
to get information about your current DNS server, or to copy the IP numbers to the clipboard.

Backup or Restore DNS Settings

The first time you run DNS Jumper, it automatically backs up your current network card’s DNS
settings. To back up the settings manually, click “Quick Configuration” (the ‘star’ button) and then
select ‘Backup DNS’.

There are two ways to restore your settings back to your ISP’s defaults.

2. Under “Choose a DNS Server”, open the drop down menu and select “Restore” or “Default”,
and then click the “Apply DNS” button

Choose a Dns Group

DNS Jumper features 3 pre-set lists of servers to choose from. Aside from the Default list, you
might also wish to see a list of Family Safe servers. These can help protect your children from
inappropriate websites (including pornographic). You can improve security by selecting the
‘Secure DNS List’.
1. Click the “DNS Group” icon (looks like two small folders) and select your desired server list
2. Click the ‘Choose a DNS Server’ drop down menu and select a DNS server from the list
3. Click the ‘Apply DNS’ button on the left

Find fastest DNS

1. Click the “Fastest DNS” button


2. Click the “Start DNS Test” button
DNS Jumper will find the fastest DNS IPs and mark them (green) and will automatically sort the
IPs based on speed.
3. The fastest DNS server will be auto-selected and you can click “Apply DNS Server” in the
bottom right of the window to apply it. Right click any DNS entry to see a context menu which
offers options to Apply DNS, mark or unmark all DNS, get information on the selected DNS, or
use the DNS Group feature.

If you have a long list of DNS servers and want to find the resolve times, you can use the Turbo
Resolve feature. It will drastically reduce the total test time.

Note: The Fastest DNS feature only works for IPv4

Add or delete a DNS or DNS group

Add or delete a DNS server: Click the “DNS Options” button (gear icon) (1)

The settings page will open to the DNS List tab. You can now edit the default DNS server list, or
choose another from the drop-down list (1). From here you can add or delete a server from the
list, change its name, or its IP address. When making changes you will need to click the “Save
Changes” button to apply them.
Add or delete a DNS server Group: There are two methods for adding or deleting a group.
a) via the user interface : Click the Add (blue plus sign) button (2) and type in a name for your
group. This will open a new blank DNS server list, to which you can manually add your own
servers. You can delete a group by using the Delete (red minus sign) button (3)

b) via the DNSJumper.ini: To avoid problems, close DNS Jumper before editing the .ini. Right-
click the dnsjumper.ini file and select “open with Notepad”.

2. Group Name
3. Location

7. True=included in fastest DNS test, false=not included in the test

To delete a DNS group, select it and delete it. The same goes for IPv6.

You can easily reorder your DNS Server list with drag and drop. As shown in the screenshot
above, to move “US-OpenDNS-2” down the list, left click it and drag it to its new position and
release.

select the “General Settings” tab. Near the bottom, tick the box next to “Start DNS Jumper on
system startup”
