Where are my DNS Settings?

Where are my DNS Settings? I got an email from Letsencrypt (which I have had for quite a few years) that it is broken. A visit to https://community.letsencrypt.org/ confirmed that my IPv6 is broken.

Linode Support says everything looks fine, but when I ping myIPv6address it is not fine and I get:
% ping 2600:3c01::f03c:91ff:fe93:e6f3

Pinging 2600:3c01::f03c:91ff:fe93:e6f3 with 32 bytes of data:
PING: transmit failed. General failure.
PING: transmit failed. General failure.
PING: transmit failed. General failure.
PING: transmit failed. General failure.

Ping statistics for 2600:3c01::f03c:91ff:fe93:e6f3:
Packets: Sent = 4, Received = 0, Lost = 4 (100% loss),

I can wait for Support to fix this (or tell me what is my current IPv6 address) OR I can reset my network to just use my IPv4 address (which seems more sensible?).

How can I set just my IPv4 address to be used? Where are my Linode.com DNS Settings, which used to be easy to find?

Thanks.

Hello,

Where are my DNS Settings?

To get to your DNS settings, you'll first want to log into your Cloud Manager and navigate to the Domains section on the left panel. Here, you will find a list of your domains, to change their settings click on any of the domains in that list, from here you are able to change your records.

How can I set just my IPv4 address to be used?

For this part I will refer you to another community post: How do I remove my IPv6 from my Linode?
