    Resolved ip change / client-server issue[resolved]

    Is there anyway to implement someway to auto change the connection ip throughout my server code upon the servers computer ip changing. The computer i currently have the server running on is a cable connection but the ip changes about every 2 days during a 2 minute downtime (computer restart).

    No i cannot keep the computer up 24/7, have to restart...or resources will start to be horrible and so shall the speed of the server. Just need someway to change ip in code during runtime i guess.

    My first idea was to have a textfile on a webserver be updated everytime the computer logs online with the current ip address...then the server on form_load check the textfile to see if the ip matches with current in server, if not then change to textfile ip..etc

    Not sure about it though, i'd like suggestions/comments
    Thanks
