How to set up tablet to use a local DNS server thru VPN rather than Google's DNS? I have a Windows Server 2008 R2 Enterprise server running in our home network. It has VPN functionality installed and fully working.

If I connect with a computer, the computer will get right DNS servers. If I connect with Android tablet (Asus Transformer Prime), the tablet will still use Google's DNS servers.

The problem with this is that I can't resolve local website addresses such as intranet. Getting the access to that site is more than necessary.

I want the (non-rooted) Android tablet to use the DNS servers provided by the VPN server.

How can I fix this?
You can solve this issue either from the Android side or from the Windows side:

Tap &quot;Wireless &amp; networks&quot;;
Tap &quot;Wi-Fi settings&quot;;
Tap your device &quot;menu&quot; to bring up extra options and select &quot;advanced&quot;;
Tap &quot;Use static IP&quot;;
Fill in your local network static IP details and dns server details;
Tap your device &quot;menu&quot; to bring up extra options and select &quot;save&quot;.



From the Windows side

Open the DNS management;
Add a new Forward Lookup Zone for the Google DNS and set a Host A record to your local IP.
