Regarding External IP Address

[jshollis]

How do you tell HFS to keep using your external IP address?  When I turn my system off the IP it defaults back to a http://169.XXX address.  How do you make an IP default?

Menu > IP adresse > your IP

If you have a fixed IP address, simply, once you have the right settings, you save your settings:

Menu > Save Options > ...to file

If you have an external IP address that often change, you will have to redo your settings every time, or create an account for a dynamic net address (dynamic DNS): [WIKI link]

So, you will not have to redone each time your settings.

if you have a dynamic external IP, and you don't want to use DNS, you can

menu -> start/exit -> find external address on startup

ooops...   I had forgotten this setting.
