A public-friendly front door into Handshake access.
Easy HNS is focused on one thing: making Handshake domains easier to reach for normal people. That means clear setup, plain English, honest operational context, and enough protocol context to explain why Handshake exists in the first place.
Global option
Use Easy HNS directly in London, or use the HNS DoH load balancer with hnsdoh.com and region-specific routes such as eu.hnsdoh.com. The Global Status App keeps both views close at hand.
External pool
The HNS DoH global pool is operated by the separate HNS DoH project, not by Easy HNS. Easy HNS terms, operational responsibility, support scope, and service commitments apply only to Easy HNS-operated services and do not extend to that external global pool.
The project is designed around clarity.
Easy HNS is not trying to sound mysterious or overbuilt. It is trying to be helpful.
Make Handshake access understandable for normal people.
Prefer the simplest accurate setup path on every platform.
Explain jargon immediately when it appears.
Stay honest about resolver scope, limits, and operational reality.
Treat status visibility and compatibility caveats as part of the product, not as hidden footnotes.
The operational details are part of the product story.
If you are configuring infrastructure, exact values matter. Easy HNS puts them in the open.
DoH
https://dns.easyhns.com/dns-query
Use in browsers and custom DoH fields.
DoT
dns.easyhns.com
Best mainstream path for Android Private DNS.
IPv4
51.24.7.1
Plain DNS fallback for routers and legacy fields.
IPv6
2a05:d01c:b4a:2900:945c:1a85:e537:cf80
Optional IPv6 endpoint.
Easy HNS helps standard browsers and devices reach Handshake domains more easily, but ordinary browsers may still show warnings for some Handshake websites because browser-native Handshake trust validation is limited.
Handshake context
Handshake is a decentralized, blockchain-based naming system built around more open ownership and stronger censorship resistance than traditional naming gatekeepers. HNS is the native Handshake token, but Easy HNS does not require you to hold HNS or use a wallet just to resolve names.
Ecosystem note
Easy HNS is part of the wider HNS DoH community ecosystem, which helps show it is connected to a broader Handshake resolver effort. But the Easy HNS website keeps the focus on its own public resolver and its own simpler setup experience.
Global Status App
status.easyhns.com is the Easy HNS Global Status App. It keeps the wider Handshake resolver picture visible, including the HNS DoH pool and other independent Handshake DNS providers. On supported devices it can be installed like a PWA, kept ready for quick setup values, and used for push notifications about uptime and outages.
Trust note
Easy HNS keeps its trust model explicit: encrypted DNS options where supported, clear resolver values, and plain limits about what a resolver can and cannot protect.
You can also connect through the global HNS DoH network.
HNS DoH is a community-run load balancer across multiple regions. Easy HNS is one of those nodes, so you can choose the dedicated London resolver or that separate HNS DoH route depending on what you want.

External HNS DoH pool
The HNS DoH global pool is operated by the separate HNS DoH project, not by Easy HNS. Easy HNS terms, operational responsibility, support scope, and service commitments apply only to Easy HNS-operated services and do not extend to that external global pool.
