How Do I Clear My ISP Dns Cache by james669: 4:05pm On Aug 03, 2015
I just made some changes to my DNS server to redirect mobile visitors to the mobile version of my site.

Please does anyone know how I contact Etisalat (which is my ISP) to clear my dns cache so that I can be able to access the changes made. Or is it possible for me to clear it myself.

I have cleared my computer's dns cache multiple times @ ipconfig/flushdns.

this depends on the value of the ttl entry of ur domain. Next time 24 hrs before u make such change reduce the ttl entry on domain parameters to about 5 mins so you will be sure to have full propagation after 5 minutes of such change.

Thank you for the advice. But How or where can I access the domain parameters to make the changes on the ttl. Is it on the cpanel or WHM or on the server?

Like MrAlozie above me said, it should be fully propagated in 24 hrs.

You should be able to change the ttl from cpanel. Thats for future dns changes.
