Setting up your Samsung Smart TV to use My Private Network’s MyTelly service should take just a few minutes by following the steps below. Please note that your Smart TV needs to be connected to a Wi-Fi or Ethernet with Internet and able to browse the web before moving on with the instructions below. You do not need to be connected to our VPN for MyTelly to work, kindly disconnect from the VPN if you have it turned on.

Whilst the Smart TV has an inbuilt web browser, we recommend that you use a computer to register your IP Address on our network.

Check MyTelly DNS Settings

Select the MyTelly tab on the left hand corner of the screen and click on Setup.
 
Check MyTelly Settings
 
Take note of the DNS server addresses that appears on your screen, you’ll need it during the setup later.
 
Note: The DNS addresses shown in the images here are just examples. Please follow the ones displayed on your own screen.

Register IP Address for MyTelly

 
Scroll down and click on Register This Address. This will register your IP address and also test your DNS setup to indicate whether you have configured the DNS settings correctly.
 
Check MyTelly Settings
 
Please note that in this instance, since you are only changing the DNS settings on your Smart TV later and not on your computer, the authentication page will return the following error:
 
Confirm MyTelly Settings
 
Please do not worry about this message as our servers have already registered your IP address as per the image above.
 
To learn more about the MyTelly errors, please refer to our article below:
MyTelly errors – Your DNS setting is not configured correctly.
 
Note: You will not have to do it again unless your IP address changes. Also, any device on the same network will be able to use the MyTelly service as long as you’ve set our DNS on their device’s settings.

Setup MyTelly on your Samsung Smart TV

 
1) From your Samsung Smart TV home screen, click on Menu.
 
2) Scroll down to Network.
 
3) You should now be in the Network Overview page. Click on Network Status.
 
4) Select IP Settings.
 
5) In IP Settings, you will need to change your DNS setting from Get Automatically to Enter Manually.
 
6) Enter one of the DNS server addresses that appeared in Step 1.
 
7) Click OK to save your changes and return to the Smart Hub.
 
8) If your IP address was registered successfully as shown in Step 2 and the DNS has been set up correctly on your Smart TV, you should now be able to access the relevant Media Apps on your Smart TV.
 
Go ahead and access any TV content providers that we support!
 
Note: If you’re unable to view or download region restricted apps (such as Hulu, BBC iPlayer, etc.), please ensure that your Smart TV region is set to the country that you want the apps from.
