# Domain Intermittently Showing Invalid Configuration Despite Correct Setup

Both my root domain and www subdomain are intermittently switching between "Valid Configuration" and "Invalid Configuration" in the Vercel dashboard. When I refresh the page, the status often changes from invalid back to valid, but the issue keeps recurring.

I've been using Vercel nameservers ([ns1.vercel-dns.com](https://ns1.vercel-dns.com) and [ns2.vercel-dns.com](https://ns2.vercel-dns.com)) for about 2 weeks now.However, the Vercel dashboard keeps switching between "Valid Configuration" and "Invalid Configuration" - when I refresh, it often changes back to valid.

The domain troubleshooting guide can help with most custom domain configuration issues. You might be able to use that guide to solve it before a human is available to help you. Then you can come back here and share the answer for [bonus points](https://community.vercel.com/t/introducing-the-vercel-leaderboard/1358).

You can also use [v0](https://v0.dev/) to narrow down the possibilities.

Hi @simaf-1 , welcome to the Vercel Community!

It seems like the DNS configuration is invalid. I checked on https://dnschecker.org/#A/simasuf.com.ng and the A records and NS records are missing:

Can you confirm if the Nameservers are set correctly?

Which domain name provider are you using?
