How long does it take?

[micky13]

I just got an offshore hosting, and pointed my domain to point to its servers. How long does it take for it to start working?

 

[tryer]

78 hours is the max, well, for mine, i added 4 nameservers, it takes just seconds for our country, then an hours for global. I dont know to your situation

 

[micky13]

It's been about 5 hours so far. Still not updated.

Did you really added the nameservers of the HOST in your DNS CP? Most of it is 2 Nameservers NS1.XX.XX and NS2.XX.XX like that. . .

If you did so, try to clear dns

Go to Start => Run => type cmd => Enter
In Command Prompt
Type:
ipconfig /flushdns
Enter

Then wait for a seconds

then try to browse your site
or if something prob
try this proxy browser

IP-Hider - Free Proxy Surfing

and type your site

then

if still not working

You shall wait less than 78 hours

(Its Normal)

You added 4, which isn't usually done.

It probs because your ISP DNS are very very slow!
