How to use MediaStreamer on your Nintendo Switch

Use this tutorial to learn how to set up your Nintendo Switch with MediaStreamer by changing your DNS settings. Note that changing DNS settings can enhance your streaming experience, but won’t offer you the full privacy protection of a VPN.
MediaStreamer not working? To use the MediaStreamer DNS servers, you must sign in to your hostname provider and register your IP address with ExpressVPN. See the instructions below on how to do this.
Jump to…
Get your DDNS hostnameSign in to update your hostnameGet your DNS server IP addressConfigure the DNS servers on your Nintendo SwitchRegister your hostname to access MediaStreamer with DDNS
Get your DDNS hostname
Note: Dynu’s standard free service is perfectly sufficient for most users. You do not need to create more than the four free hostnames in order to use MediaStreamer.Go to https://www.dynu.com and click Create Account.

Create your account to receive the account verification email from Dynu.

Open the link in the verification email then log in to your account on https://www.dynu.com and select DDNS Services.

Click on + Add to add a DDNS service.

If you do not have a hostname already, enter your desired hostname in Option 1 and click + Add. This is the recommended option for users who are not familiar with domain names.
If you already have your own domain name, enter your domain name in Option 2 and click +Add.

Once done, you will see your hostname and your current public IP. Uncheck both Wildcard Alias and Enable IPv6 Address and click Save.

And that’s it! Your DDNS hostname is set up and ready to be used!
Need help? Contact the ExpressVPN Support Team for immediate assistance.

Sign in to update your hostname
From your Switch’s web browser, sign in to your account on https://www.dynu.com. This will ensure that your IP is updated in order to use MediaStreamer.
Need help? Contact the ExpressVPN Support Team for immediate assistance.

Get your DNS server IP address
To set up the MediaStreamer DNS server on your Nintendo Switch, you will need to obtain the DNS server IP address.
On a separate device, open the Welcome Email you received when you signed up for ExpressVPN. Click the link in the email.

If you can’t find the link, log in to your account here .

Once you’ve clicked the link in the welcome email or logged in to the website, click on Set Up ExpressVPN on the Active Subscriptions page.

Select MediaStreamer on the left side of the screen. On the right, you will find the MediaStreamer DNS server IP address. Keep it on hand for setup.

Need help? Contact the ExpressVPN Support Team for immediate assistance.
Back to top
Configure the DNS servers on your Nintendo Switch
On your Switch, go to System Settings.

Go to Internet > Internet Settings.

Select the network you want to be connected to.

Select Change Settings.

Go down to DNS Settings and select Manual.

Paste in the first IP address you copied from the ExpressVPN setup page and press OK.

For Secondary DNS, enter the second IP address you copied from the ExpressVPN setup page and press OK.
Note: your Nintendo Switch might reformat the numbers so that each number between the periods is three digits—this is expected.
When you finish entering the IP addresses, click Save. Your Nintendo Switch will tell you the settings have been saved. Select OK.

Congratulations! MediaStreamer DNS has been set up on your Nintendo Switch!
Need help? Contact the ExpressVPN Support Team for immediate assistance.
Back to top
Register your hostname to access MediaStreamer with DDNS
In order to use the MediaStreamer smoothly, you must register your hostname on the ExpressVPN website. Follow these steps to register your hostname. You should have set one up a hostname previously.
Go to www.expressvpn.com and click on MY ACCOUNT on the top header bar.

Sign in using your account information.

After signing in, click DNS Settings in the top header bar.

Under Dynamic DNS Registration, enter the hostname you want to register and click Save Hostname.

After the process is completed, you will see an indication that the hostname has been updated.
