Having an issue pointing nameservers at Digital Ocean...

Hi there.

I’m trying to point my domain at the Digital Ocean nameservers, but the domain authority is suggesting there is a problem with the setup and it cannot point at them. Can you help?

Hey there,

If you are setting up nameservers at your domain registrar’s website, DigitalOcean’s nameservers and their IP addresses are:

ns1.digitalocean.com. 173.245.58.51

ns2.digitalocean.com. 173.245.59.41

ns3.digitalocean.com. 198.41.222.173

Also, you can follow the tutorial link below to update the nameserver:

If you are still experiencing issues then please contact support for help.

Thank you!

DNS is the naming system that is used to bind a domain name to a web server. In this guide, we will change the nameservers for a domain that we have registered and point it to a DigitalOcean Droplet.
