  Hi!

  We don’t support mapping by IP address. Instead, you will need to change your name servers to point to WordPress.com as described here:

  If you have email records, you can add those at WordPress.com as well so your email address still functions correctly:

  DNS Records

  Please let me know if you need anything else!
