dynamic ip on router

[mtupker]

Just a quick question. I have port forwarding setup for UDP 8767 to the servers internal IP which is static. However I noticed that the BoundToIp1 field is empty and the ExternalIPDectection field is misspelled and set to one (may have accidentally pressed a random key while editing the file).

Can the BoundToIp field be set to a DNS name rather than an IP (my router is getting a dynamic IP address)? I'm using dyndns to get a DNS name. Also am I right in assuming that the ExternalIPDectection field activates something that will detect my external IP (and is it supposed to be misspelled), or does it only detect the IP of the computer it is running on.

Thanks.

Here is my server.ini as it exists now:

[Main Config]
BoundToIp1=
ExternalIPDectection=1
HTTPServer Port=14534
HTTPServer Enabled=1
DateTimeFormat=dd-mm-yyyy hh:nn:ss

The spelling mistake is there in my server.ini as well :)

As for port forwarding just set the forwarded port to your server IP (PC that's running teamspeak server), the Dyndns will point all traffic to your router, the router will then take the forwarded port and point it towards your teamspeak server, nothing else needs to be done. If you do need to bind the IP then as you;re using a forwarded port you only need to bind to the local address.

Thanks for confirming the spelling issue. :) I've gotten the server working pretty well. A friend of mine is still having issues connecting to my server but I've confirmed that the problem is on his end. Thanks for the reply.
