What is DNS?

The word DNS stands for “Domain Name System”. It is a server that contains the collection of IP addresses with their hostname, a.k.a domains. DNS is used to resolve the IP addresses and domain names. It helps to translate web addresses (for example, abcd.com) to their IP addresses (like 128.131.1.0).

What is Router DNS?

It is often seen that many routers out there in the market set themselves as your DNS server. When you attempt to request a new website URL (domain), your router’s DNS server asks your internet service provider’s DNS for the respective IP address and then completes your request.

If you tend to make the same request next time, your router will remember the IP address, resulting in a faster response. This is what Router DNS is; this helps to establish a better internet connection.
