Default static IP address needed on an AOL account?


-------- Original-Nachricht --------

Hi,
Yes, I have used the same one but you need to put the software on the
computer for it to link to. I am trying to get the ip to point to the router
only so I can have access across the LAN.


David was right. The purpose of the dyndns client on any computer behind
the router is to update the ROUTERs public ip address.
What's remaining is port forwarding for VPN (port 1723).
