DNS propagation can take up to 48 hours, although it usually completes within a few hours. It's recommended to wait at least 24 hours after updating your nameservers before troubleshooting. During this time, different DNS servers around the world are updating their records. Using `whatsmydns.net` will help you monitor the propagation progress.
