How do I change the DNS of my domain?
Updated on 3 November 2026
Please note that by changing the NS servers of your domain, you are changing an important setting that may take your site offline.
A DNS change can take up to 48 hours to take effect (normal propagation time).
To change the NS (name servers) of an active domain:
- Sign in to the Client Area (https://www.atlashoster.com/)
- In the top menu, click My Domains
- If several domains exist in this account, choose the domain concerned and click View details. Otherwise the domain's management page is displayed automatically
- Under DNS Servers (Nameservers), change the fields DNS 1, DNS 2, DNS 3 and DNS 4 (as needed), then click Save changes. Note that any DNS change can take up to 48 hours to become effective.
The DNS of an expired domain name cannot be changed; it must be renewed first.
