    Hi guys, I recently changed my nameservers and my site only seems to load about half of the time. When using the DNS check tool, I get the following error:

    Warning: Server A.ROOT-SERVERS.NET did not provide address of a.root-servers.net - using simple local resolve to fill in the missing information.
    Result: a.root-servers.net is 198.41.0.4
    Warning: Server A.ROOT-SERVERS.NET did not provide address of b.root-servers.net - using simple local resolve to fill in the missing information.
    Result: b.root-servers.net is 192.228.79.201
    Warning: Server A.ROOT-SERVERS.NET did not provide address of d.root-servers.net - using simple local resolve to fill in the missing information.
    Result: d.root-servers.net is 128.8.10.90
    Warning: Server A.ROOT-SERVERS.NET did not provide address of e.root-servers.net - using simple local resolve to fill in the missing information.
    Result: e.root-servers.net is 192.203.230.10
    Warning: Server A.ROOT-SERVERS.NET did not provide address of i.root-servers.net - using simple local resolve to fill in the missing information.
    Result: i.root-servers.net is 192.36.148.17
    Warning: Server A.ROOT-SERVERS.NET did not provide address of k.root-servers.net - using simple local resolve to fill in the missing information.
    Result: k.root-servers.net is 193.0.14.129

    I really have no idea what this means, but my gut tells me it's related to the site not loading.

    To test yourself, go to http://www.squish.net/dnscheck/ and then type wideshut.co.uk

    Help would be greatly appreciated.

    Neither ns1.dropkicktv.com or ns2.dropkicktv.com are responding to requests to resolve host names, you need to check with your host that they are the correct nameservers and if they are correct you'll need to have the host fix them.

    Hello,

    Your name servers seems to be as follows,
    Name servers:
    ns1.velcom.com
    ns2.velcom.com


    . Please make sure your are pointing to the correct name servers to your server
