Sorta Dedicated IP

[_JohnB330ci]

Hey there, I'm on BT and my public IP address constantly changes (every other day) I was unable to find an option on the HUB Manager to switch to dedicated IP despite being able to before on an older hub. I was simply wondering for games such as minecraft where I host the server in house but use the public IP to connect, is it possible to/is there a program that fetches my IP and writes it to a new local domain, which I can then enter? So that whenever I start my PC its always up to date with the latest IP?

Make a dynamic DNS here, then download this program to your computer.

Two main ways.

(Best) Get a static ip.

Or use a Dynamic DNS service.

 

Is it possible to switch to a static IP with BT? and I'd prefer to not use a DNS service as it still requires me to change the IP? Which I might as well do anyway then.

The program from no-ip keeps your IP up to date.
