This info is not your server info
This is your rcvr network info
what are you trying to do?

Hey tor nice to see you again bro.gnx-87 when posting always try to give as much info as possible it cuts down on endless postings.

[gnx-87]

SW download
net application

then I go to IP setup

then this comes up:
Network Setting--auto
IP address---
Gateway----
DNS---
2nd DNS---
USER DNS---

[torpainter]

you still have not answered my question
"what are you trying to do?


are you trying to change server info?

[gnx-87]

I read that nfps is changing the IP adress,that what I am trying to do.

[gnx-87]

on my nano II

[torpainter]

you do that in net application not in ip set-up

[hutch]

leave IP set up on auto... go to net application ... there should be a place for either ip address or domain name. if server type says domain name it should be either 1.nfps.ws or 2.nfps.ws depending on which port you are on. if server type says ip address then put the new IP here. I believe you can change server type to either domain name or IP address

[gnx-87]

thanks guys,will do this & let you know how it went

[gnx-87]

It's nice to be back home with so many friends.

[gnx-87]

well I went to net application,domain name is 2.nfps.ws
do I click on that to say IP address & key in the new IP address on that line.
sorry to come across dumb,but I just don't want to screw it up

[gnx-87]

When I clicked on domain it changes to IP address & the line under it says 0.0.0.0

yes it is :)

[gnx-87]

thank you, will wait till wifey goes to bed so I don't get yelled at if I screw it up.LOL

Actually, the domain is not changing just the ip address. folks with a domain entered should direct to the new ip no prob < as in not having to change anything. those with an ip must change it within a few days.
two cents worth.....maybe better for another thread.

[gnx-87]

So that means I don't have to do anything cause I have the Domain entered & not the IP address.
If I click on the Domain it changes to IP & this comes up 0.0.0.0?????

[ruthie]

Yes when on it hit ok and the # pad should come up etc..... put it the ip # there with dots etc...

[jeldf]

So that means I don't have to do anything cause I have the Domain entered & not the IP address.
If I click on the Domain it changes to IP & this comes up 0.0.0.0?????

Yes. they are only changing the domain to another server. If you are using the domain and it is working for you, you will be good. If you use an IP you will have to change to the new IP.

Not always, but sometimes it can take some time for the DNS entries to be updated, as well as the routing information to be updated.

So, if the domain name is not working for you, you can always try the ip address. (and vice versa)
