    Hi everyone !

    Some months ago I configured both client and server to connect them both via the Internet.

    Today I tried to connect my tablet to my home PC, where the server is installed and currently running, and I coudn’t.

    I had to connect using Teamviewer.

    The reason was the External IP had changed and I didn’t know the new one.

    Is it there any way to prevent this?

    Can my client get updated with the new IP as it is changed by NoMachine’s team?

    Thanks !

    Hello,

    NoMachine doesn’t change a computer’s IP.

    Changing the IP address may be due to the fact that you do not have a static IP address assigned by your ISP. The address may change from time to time or during the restart of your router.

    The solution to this problem may be the use of Dynamic DNS eg. https://www.noip.com, https://dyn.com/dns/. Your router may have the ability to configure such service.

    Software for informing Dynamic DNS about changing the IP address may also be installed on the computer on which you have installed NoMachine.

    Regards
    Tom
