# Change Nameserver using NetworkManager

Do not edit `/etc/resolv.conf`. It will likely be replaced by NetworkManager.
<!--more-->
Open a shell and add nameserver for existing connection.

```bash
nmcli con mod $ssid ipv4.dns "1.1.1.1 1.0.0.1"
```
The SSID can be found with `nmcli con`.

Replace the IP addresses to your desired ones.

Now restart the connection to apply the changes.

```bash
nmcli con down $ssid
nmcli con up $ssid 
```

Verify with `cat /etc/resolv.conf`.
