    Default Samsung Tab S 8.4 - change DNS

    I can get to "Modify network config"

    Press that and I get a pop-up asking "Enter password". WTF. I have no idea - it is not the "connect" password.

    A quick 'net search reveals nothing.
    If Australia is a democracy why, then, is voting compulsory?

    If it's like my phone, scroll down a bit on the popup and you get Advanced options.

    There's nothing to indicate you should scroll down.

    I should have added that all that shows on the pop-up is "Enter password" and check boxes for "Show password", "Show advanced settings and "CANCEL" and "SAVE".

    EDIT: Some progress?

    Input the "connect" password and I get a small black triangle above "SAVE" which then gives me "None", "Manual" and "Auto configure" as options. I pressed "Manual" and nothing really happened except the word Manual appeared on the original pop-up and "SAVE" is greyed out. Pressing "None" just puts None on the original pop-up.

    EDIT2:

    Click Modify network config>click Show advanced options>click the back button>modify as needed>save.

    It takes some people a long time to work out 21st century technology.
