Hi all,

For remote access in WHS - Do I have to have a Static IP from my ISP?

...or does MS take care of it through xxxx.homeserver.com..?

Thanks
 
thanks

I have done this and it all worked fine for a few days

...but today - when I turned on the WHS - the 'Network' icon was showing red 'critical'...? and then I had to click the 'setup' or 'configure' ... then it refreshed and all was ok and showing green..?

...I was thinking... was this because my router had been assigned a new IP address from my ISP?

....So does Microsoft actually actually handle it via DDNS?

Thanks
