I am trying to set up my Google domain on Digital Ocean. The records I have are these:
- Type A - www.domainname.com - directs to droplet
- Type A - domainname.com - directs to droplet
- Type NS - domainname.com - directs to ns1.digitalocean.com.
- Type NS - domainname.com - directs to ns2.digitalocean.com.
- Type NS - domainname.com - directs to ns3.digitalocean.com.
I have waited more than 48 hours and still I get a refused to connect message. I also have checked other questions related to this and nothing has worked so far.

Hi there @knopmatthew93,
What I could suggest is to change your nameservers to the DigitalOcean nameservers and then add your domain name under your DigitalOcean account. That way you will be able to manage your DNS directly via your DigitalOcean control panel.
For more information on how to do that you can follow the steps here:
Hope that this helps! let me know if you have any quesitons! Regards, Bobby
