Hello,

This past weekend I moved from ***** to Hosting Matters. I went to Network Solutions, the registrar of my two domains, and changed the name server info.

A day later I was up and running on Hosting Matters and my domain names were pointing to IPs at Hosting Matters.

This morning I was horrified to see that the domain name servers for my IP addresses *and* the IP addresses the domain names resolved to are back on *****.

HELP!

I made the changes again at Network Solutions and now have to wait for the update at 5:00pm for propagation.

What caused this?

How can I prevent this?

What is going on?

Any help anyone can provide would be awesome! THANKS!

Hi,

I have one for you.

I too left ***** on Aug 6th. Went with MCHost. Had to change my name servers. That was on Aug 6th at 11:00 am its now Aug 8th 11:36. 48 hours and no propagation.. WTF is going on?

NetworkSolutions is having delays of up to a week currently; we've just transferred a domain name a few days ago and its still not resolving.

I feel that Network solutions :disagree:. Their charges are sky high compared to the rest of the registrar, and service is a let down.

When one of my domain was about to expire in two months time, I made a request to change registrar, the form was completed and was accepted. But the actual transfer never went thru. They claimed that the domain was expired.

I was so pissed that I refuse to renew the domain ... now I have to wait for it to be free .... been more than 6 months now and still waiting.

Thanks for the note, but in my case the domain name was changed to the new nameserver and it was reflected in pings and the whois.

Now, it has mysteriously reverted back to *****.

Did you use two seperate ISP's to check the domain name? Ex.. You checked at home yesterday, now at work it shows *****?

If so, then it is just an issue with your ISP's caching servers. You can see the true resolution as InterNIC sees it here -

Some ISP's refresh every 48 hours.

Yes :-)

It was totally moved over. No issues at all. On three different networks and on three different name servers. The WHOIS record was updated as well.

If all these unprofessional delays and problems still go on... I suggest that all the people here having problem with Network Solutions go file a complaint to the BBB (Better Business Bureau).

We can't let this go on forever... I'm not having any domains there but I also face serious delays and problems when some of my clients who bought domains from NSI wants to transfer out due to price and service. What you guys think?

Yeap.... the internet community is finally realizing that higher prices doesn't always mean better service.
