software to control dynamic IP address
- Thread starter waely
- Start date
You can't point or forward IP addresses in this way, because thery're controlled by your ISP, not by you or your PC.
The closest you can get is dyn-dns: you create a dns name: e.g. waely.dyn-dns.com.
Instead of connecting by IP address, you use this. Whenever your IP changes, the dyn-dns address can be updated automatically.
Providers that I know of include no-ip and dyn-dns.
