Mybe I missed something but in the forums I have not found info regarding Dynamic IPs. Unfortunatly after every 24 hours I get a new IP from my ISP. Is there any way I can update my Game Monitor server to my new IP ? Or do I have to keep adding New Servers every day? In which case when will the expired IP address entry be removed from Game Monitor?
I found out that Game Monitor cannot query DNS so NO-IP is out of the question. But there must be a solution.

Do you need this for signature images? Also, the server should be auto added within 6-8hrs of it comming online.

Not exactly sure what you mean. I need it so my buddies and other players can find my COD2 server. If my IP address was fixed then it wouldn't be a problem. The thing is as soon as my IP address changes (after 24hrs) I get a new one. My server is still running but Game Monitor will show it as having the old address and nobody can connect. After some time the listing is removed from Game Monitor because when it updates the server info (every 12 minutes), it finds no Host at the old IP and I guess removes the entry. Which is why I was asking if I can somehow edit the entry at Game Monitor to my updated IP address.
What do you mean auto added (to where) and why 6-8 hrs.
