Transfer domain from Network Solutions

Want to transfer your domain from Network Solutions to JetHost? The steps are simple: unlock the domain, request its authorization code, and start the transfer in your JetHost Client Area. This guide follows Network Solutions’ current interface.

Before you start

Under ICANN rules, a domain can only be transferred if:

• It was registered or last transferred more than 60 days ago.
• It is not expired and not too close to its expiry date.
• Your registrant (admin) email at Network Solutions is current, as the authorization code and transfer notifications are sent there.

Also check that your domain’s extension (TLD) is one JetHost can register – this is a JetHost requirement, not an ICANN rule.

Unlock the domain and request the Auth code

1. Log in to your Network Solutions account and click Domains in the left menu.
2. Select the domain you want to move (click Settings in Summary View, or the menu → Manage in Advanced View).
3. Open the Security tab and toggle Domain Lock off.
4. Click Request Auth Code. Network Solutions emails the code to your registrant address, usually within 24 hours.

If domain privacy is enabled, turn it off too, so the transfer emails reach you. The authorization code is case-sensitive, so copy and paste it exactly. For reference, see Network Solutions’ own transfer-out guide.

Start the transfer at JetHost

If you have not ordered the transfer yet, start it here: order a domain transfer. Enter your domain, add it to the cart, and complete the order.

Once the transfer is ordered, add your authorization code:

1. Log in to your JetHost Client Area.
2. Go to Domains → Manage and open the domain you are transferring.
3. Paste the Authorization (EPP) code and confirm.

Once the code is accepted, the transfer starts automatically. Network Solutions has up to five days to release the domain under ICANN policy, so allow up to a week overall. If it has not completed after seven days, contact our support team to check the status.

Most extensions add a year to your registration when you transfer, so you rarely lose any time already paid for. Your website and email keep running throughout, as long as your DNS records stay the same at JetHost.
