there should be a link inside your router that says DHCP, it could possibly have a drop down, if it does, drop that down

Start
run
type in cmd
type ipconfig /all

Subnet Mask-- remember that
default gateway-----remember that
DHCP server----remember that
DNS Servers---- remember those

now imput them into your router where it says DHCP
after you do that, hit ok
and it should change it

hi,
if you are server for your game, you can use

You must be registered to see links

input your domain name on your serverlist on client.

How to configure no-ip ! (dyndns)

1. Go here:

You must be registered to see links

2. Register an account...
3. Login in and [Add host]
4. Let the default configuration, you just need to type a name (ie: mydomain.no-ip.biz)
5. Download the client and connect with your account
6. Just let the no-ip client to retrieve your sub-domain list...

Now you can have a static external access for your server with your dynamic dns!

In the serverlist.txt for your client, you need to put your domain.

example:

my pwserver    29000:mydomain.no-ip.biz  1

(the space are made with the Tab key and not the Space key!)

note:
don't forget to make a shortcut of NO-IP DUC in your Start menu of windows!

otherwise, your players will be not able to access on your server if you forget to run the NO IP client!

another question about this...how many client can i use with this?

 

[Romulan]

Whenever you want! It's as if you had a real domain ... So the only limit is your Internet connection and your server tt1:

 

[pagipagi]

yes, that was i mean. romulan has explained it. its like a sub domain name ( usually only free dns server which use subdomain like blabla.theircomapnay.com , for real DNS i just now

You must be registered to see links

, name.com allow you to manage advance your dns its not free ).

You must be registered to see links

and

You must be registered to see links

its like a pointer DNS to your DHCP IP
so you just need to put your blabla.theircompay.com to your serverlist on client.

the other way,
setting from modem like topology below:
LAN Mode,
Your Provider --- modem in bridge mode -- dial pppoe -- CPU Router ( set become static depend on your OS, ) -- klien/Swicth

Public IP Mode
Your Provider - moden in bridge mode - dial ppoe - CPU Router ( maybe your PW server )
remember, you need to do port forwading from your modem about PW ( 29000 )

something like that

 

[Romulan]

Yes no-ip is a free subdomain name service that allow you to connect externally on your server without to change every time the IP in your serverlist.txt on your client folder.

If you want your domain, you will need to pay for registering a new personal domain. Usually, some ISP or hosting services can provide you this.

ubuntu version :

Desired new sample settings:
=> Host IP address 192.168.1.100
=> Netmask: 255.255.255.0
=> Network ID: 192.168.1.0
=> Broadcast IP: 192.168.1.255
=> Gateway/Router IP: 192.168.1.254
=> DNS Server: 192.168.1.254

Open network configuration file
$ sudo vi /etc/network/interfaces

OR
$ sudo nano /etc/network/interfaces

You will see something like:
" iface eth0 inet dhcp "
or maybe
" auto lo "
" iface lo inet loopback "

Delete all that words, Change it become:
iface eth0 inet static
address 192.168.1.100
netmask 255.255.255.0
network 192.168.1.0
broadcast 192.168.1.255
gateway 192.168.1.254

Save and close the file. Restart the network:
$ sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart

<bold><b> Task: Define new DNS servers</b></bold>

Open /etc/resolv.conf file
$ sudo vi /etc/resolv.conf

You need to remove old DNS server assigned by DHCP server:
search myisp.com
nameserver 192.168.1.254
nameserver 202.54.1.20
nameserver 202.54.1.30

Save and close the file.


Task: Test DNS server
root@dikayeah-desktop:/etc/network# host ragezone.com
ragezone.com has address 69.163.33.187
ragezone.com mail is handled by 1 aspmx.l.google.com.


Network command line cheat sheet

You can also use commands to change settings. Please note that these settings are temporary and not the permanent. Use above method to make network changes permanent or GUI tool as described below.

Task: Display network interface information
$ ifconfig

Task: Take down network interface eth0 / take a network interface down
$ sudo ifconfig eth0 down

OR
$ sudo ifdown eth0

Task: Bring a network interface eth0 up
$ sudo ifconfig eth0 up

OR
$ sudo ifup eth0

Task: Change IP address and netmask from command line
Activate network interface eth0 with a new IP (192.168.1.50) / netmask:
$ sudo ifconfig eth0 192.168.1.50 netmask 255.255.255.0 up

Task: Display the routing table
$ /sbin/route
OR
$ /sbin/route -n

Example output:
root@dikayeah-desktop:/etc/network# /sbin/route -n
Kernel IP routing table
Destination Gateway Genmask Flags Metric Ref Use Iface
169.254.0.0 0.0.0.0 255.255.0.0 U 1000 0 0 eth1
10.14.0.0 0.0.0.0 255.255.0.0 U 1 0 0 eth1
0.0.0.0 10.14.207.1 0.0.0.0 UG 0 0 0 eth1

Task: Add a new gateway
$ sudo route add default gw 69.69.69.69 <<-- i like this number

ihihihihihih...

NB:
1. eth0 is a network card. so its depend which network card which do you use. i use 2 network card, so i use eth1 for my setting
2. however, you still need to do Port Forwarding from your ADSL modem. PW port is " 29000 "

I do this:
1. register account
2. login then add host
3. download the client then connect to my account
4. wait for update to complete

so then do i need to reconfigure my server?
if so then where must the changes take place?
oh...how to retrive the domain list?

 

[Romulan]

It's automatic!

But check the no-ip window client to be sure that there is no error

 

[asreinna]

@komp1
sorry but i cant connect to ur server regretablly...
plz check ur configuration...

i write this

DRACON 29000:redworld.no-ip.biz 11

is this right? im i wrong?

 

[komp1]

no. u do that right. may be its my fault.
can u tell me where i do wrong?
since u cannot connect to my server it means that something is wrong right?
help me point where i do wrong?

 

[Romulan]

I don't know... do you see your subdomain list in no-ip client? Do you have checked the little box next to the line where you see your subdomain in the no-ip client?

Important note:
I suggest you to start no-ip automatically when you start your computer...

Do you have open your port 29000 (pwserver port) on your modem/router's firewall? And maybe port 80 (http) if you want to let everyone to register to your server?

 

[pagipagi]

@komp1 are you sure that your IP is a Public ip ?
ask your provider if your ip is a public ...

 

[komp1]

i live in malaysia and my connection is PPPoE. Streamyx is the only choice of internet i got but it cannot make my ip a static ip also the modem that i use (Aztech DSL605E) is modem+router type that use auto connection. so any1 can suggest an idea so that i can host a server on wan?

 

[cheezii]

Hai, i also have this problem and im stuck at here "In the serverlist.txt for your client, you need to put your domain." Can you explain how to find serverlist.txt and put my domain?

EDIT: And please tell me if i need to edit the localhost to my wan ip?

 

[Romulan]

..\Perfect World\element\userdata\server\serverlist.txt

This is the server list.

And you need to open the port 29000 on your modem/router and point this port to your server ip.

Example of router configuration:

Application Name      |       Port      |         IP        |
    pwserver                 29000           192.168.0.50
