Can't connect to MY Minecraft server after DNS flush

Sorry if this is in the wrong place, feel free to move it if so. Sorry for any inconvenience.



I run a server with my own domain, I contacted my domain host because I could not connect to my server using domain after my public IP had changed after updating the A record within the domain interface, (though I could connect via IP) but my host told me to flush DNS, and so I did. Now I can not connect to my server after a windows reinstall and resetting my router to defaults. The ports are forwarded correctly, I checked using a port checker.

UPDATE!!: Others can join server but not I.
SIDE NOTE: I did reinstall windows so I don't think this has anything to do with the DNS flush.

 

@Kyle2kxx If you're running the server locally you can't join with the domain if you're on the same network. You have to join using either the local ip (192.168.x.x), "0", "local", or "localhost".

Give that a shot and let me know how it goes!
