  • 0

If for some reason you cannot view your website and need to refresh your DNS. Please follow the steps outlined below:

In Windows OS

Search for the command prompt and right click and run as administrator and issue the following commands

  1. ipconfig /flushdns
  2. nbtstat -R


In Mac OS

To clear your DNS cache if you use MacOS X version 10.10.4 or above, perform the following steps:

  1. Click Applications.
  2. Click Utilities.
  3. Click Terminal.
  4. Run the following command:
sudo killall -HUP mDNSResponder

If the command succeeds, the system does not return any output.

Warning: To run this command, you must know the computer's administrator account password.

 

These steps should clear your old dns and refresh your connection. If this does not work a router restart might be useful.
