I set up my router to port forward. I was using NOIP with my previous ISP because the IP address was changing. With my new ISP I don't have that problem. My goal is to use something like "www.mywebpage.com" to access my home server instead of using my actual IP. I am thinking about having a place for family to see pictures and videos I have of my kids. I am also wanting to have my own cloud server for files and media. I am under the impression that to have my own domain name I would need to do that through NOIP. Is there another way to have name address resolution without NoIp? -----Original Message----- From: Richard Sent: Wednesday, August 18, 2021 1:19 PM To: users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: Re: Issues with accessing web page using DNS URL > Date: Wednesday, August 18, 2021 12:48:36 -0500 > From: wendellkbest@xxxxxxxxx > > I am wondering if anyone has any idea as to what could be happening to > prevent me from using the URL I have set up with No-IP. > > Particulars: > > 1.

Does anyone have any ideas why this is the case? > Not a lot of detail to work from ... Are you using NAT for your network behind the router? If so, are you port-forwarding the necessary port(s) to the target machine's internal/lan IPnumber? Separately, if you have a static (public) IPnumber why not set up DNS rather than using "no-ip", which is intended for cases where you *don't* have a static IPnumber. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscribe@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx For additional commands, e-mail: users-help@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Scanned by McAfee and confirmed virus-free.
