DNS (Domain Name System) is used to map names to numbers. It functions as an internet phone book. When a user enters a domain name in their web browser, DNS servers translate the name into IP addresses, determining which server to connect to.

Private nameservers display your domain name instead of the default nameservers. This service is available on all our hosting plans and for all our clients. If you want to advertise your business or provide hosting services, having private nameservers can be beneficial.

You can use the system information to find out which DNS you are using. In Settings, select Wi-Fi and click on the "i" next to the SSID name. Then, you need to check the used DNS.
