# CNAME setup

 * Was semi-excited about trying this new service, but so far very disappointed.
   The documentation basically says, “set up the DNS”. In the FAQ, it asks, “how
   do I know if I set it up corrrectly?” to which the reply is basically, “if it
   isn’t, it won’t work.” It’s like a snarky teenager is in charge of instructions
   and support.
    . What would be really helpful, useful even, is a couple of quick
   screen grab pix in the Instructions of a properly set up DNS, with and without
   Cloudflare, showing Type, Name, and Content (or Points To). I’ve used Sucuri 
   and Cloudflare, so I know how to make changes, but I don’t live, eat, and sleep
   DNS. Those two companies give clear instructions of EXACTLY what to do. As it
   is, with the QUIC Cloud instructions leaving more questions than answers, and
   having read through the numerous CNAME-related questions here, all asking essentially
   the same thing, and getting <Zero help, I find myself unimpressed.

 * Hi [@tda325](https://wordpress.org/support/users/tda325/),
 * I am sorry to hear that you had a less-than-ideal introduction to QUIC.cloud.
   We are constantly improving the product, and as it is in beta, documentation 
   are quickly hashed together and become out of date rather quickly.
 * We will look to improve the documentation, as we do strive to make the process
   as easy as possible.
 * In the meantime, is there anything that we can help with as far as setting up
   QUIC.cloud for your site?
 * Best,
    Kevin

 * I made a fairly specific suggestion in the second paragraph. SOme screen grabs.
   Currently, I’m trying to connect a site via Cloudflare. Positive that I’m not
   doing it correctly, because the site is utterly broken. No idea whether the problem
   is in the CNAME settings, the Optimization settings. Nothing to reference against.
   WIll be removing this plugin.

 * Understood. Apologies for the troubles. I will work to improve the onboarding
   document, so that it clarifies some steps.

 * Hi [@tda325](https://wordpress.org/support/users/tda325/),
 * If you are willing to give it another try, I revamped the entire onboarding document
   today. Feel free to give it a try; I took your suggestions and made more screenshots
   and updated the text some.
 * [Here’s the doc](https://docs.litespeedtech.com/lscdn/onboarding/)
 * Thanks,
    Kevin
