cant connect to server!?!?!

When I try to connect to the server I cant connect it just lags me out and I have no Idea why it does

 

Try use 31.220.14.17, Or update your DNS.

 

what is the dns?

 

cuz like u swap to 1.7.4 to 1.7.2 but still wont connect when i try join it says cant connect to server for me

 

DNS has nothing to do with your minecraft version.

 

ok then why cant I connect to the server?

 

The server switched domains. Some people have can't connect because their DNS needs to update.

 

Yes but I lagged out and havent been able to connect

 

Your comp auto does DNS updates. Wait

 

I cant join?!!

 

Use this ip: 31.220.14.17

 

If that doesn't work try direct connect using that ip

 

it didn't work

 

what should I do now

 

Try, closeing and reopening

 

I tried

 

and I tried restarting my computer

 

There have been a few problems with logging into the server recently
