Ok, I am pretty new to this, but I have set up a basic (index page) for a website on my main PC.

I used Adobe Go Live, created an index page which I can access from Firefox (I used the IIS via the control panel and Admin tools to enable it.

So far I can log on using my browser, no problem, lets for the sake of things, my LAN address on the pc is 192.168.1.2, I can ping this fine.

So we then get to the router which would be something like 192.168.1.2, again, I can ping this no problem.

The next part is what is confusing me. I have a host set up using No-Ip website, and just for the sake of it, if I ping miggins.no-ip.biz, nothing 100% loss.

I check that the No-Ip address is up dated correctly, i.e. 118.***.***.115, which is correct, it is the same address as in my router and when I ping this it is fine, no packet loss.

If I then go into the cmd prompt and ping the miggins.no-ip.biz address, it is giving me a different IP address, 118.***.***.242 and 100% packet loss, the address is an assigned address I had about 1 hour previously (I have dynamic ip) Any idea what is not getting updated, it seems to be on the local side as the router address matches the no-ip address.

Edited updated info:

OK, I did a cmd ipconfig / renew and now I can ping my dns using the name and that works. Now the strangest thing happens when I type in the address (text address - from the hosting service) into firefox, I get a request for authentication, password and username.

I tried various passwords nothing worked until I entered the TOT log on information the admin details to access the modem, and lo and behold, the TOT DSL modem page came up, with all the settings of the modem, I can refresh the page and move around the pages real time - Here is the funny part - I don't have the TOT modem connected anymore - I am using an all in one Belkin modem wireless router!!!

Then I looked closer, and it's NOT MY MODEM - it is someone elses! Different phone number and everything!! Have I inadvertently hacked into someones site?

I can access every single page on their modem and probably be able to change settings!!! (not that I am going to ) I have their phone number so I may give them a call and suggest they change their password or something.

Actually, their internet is a lot worse connection than mine! 10dB SNR Margin and 62dB attenuation! It's a Chiang Mai number too. How can this happen? I can get in and can disable their firewall and everything else in there!!

someone explain what could be going on?......ppppleeeeeaaaaaseee

I really have no idea of what you are trying to do or achieve

why are you worrying about ip addresses etc when your page is on your pc?

**Missismiggins** · 28-10-2009, 07:36 PM

What I was trying to do was get a test to see if I was able to broadcast on the internet.

I used th No-IP web site to create what was "supposed" to be a unique identity - that allowed me to log on, or anyone else for that matter, from anywhere on the internet and view the webcam.

After registering my UNIQUE host name, I tried to log on to it to see if I could view the cam, only to find I was in someone elses modem, on the TOT network.

The DynDns site appears to give out host names willy nilly, but if I use No-IP then it seems to connect to my machine every time.

When logging on to the DynDns host name I was provided, I found at least another 4 instances of the same identity given to others.

But the thing I was trying to figure out was how could I manage to log onto another TOT users modem, and be able to change the settings?

I got the cameras working today, I can use either a DVR or a Webcam, and remotely access it from the internet, like a security camers. I got some friends to log on from Shanghai and singapore and they were able to get the live broadcast.

The thing that worries me now is the security.

The 2nd thing I am trying to do is to embed a webcam in a webpage on my PC, that can be accessed over the internet, that i havent had much success with.

I expect I can do what I want using a "Wake on LAN" setting, then have Media Encoder start automatically, but that seems a bit messy.

If i could simply publish a webpage stored on my PC, accessed via an address from No-IP.com that would allow me to click on a live video feed, then that would be enough.

ip are shared in Thailand, you don't have a unique static ip, upload it to the site I gave you on the other thread, it has all the scripts there ready to copy and paste.

**Butterfly** · 28-10-2009, 07:47 PM

port forwarding is what you are looking for

with IIS, that could be dangerous though

This is the 4th attempt to make a simple post here.
Can anyone tell me why, whenever I hit either the apostrophe key or the forward slash, I lose everything that I have just typed and end up with a little red box down on the left hand corner denoting search or find, I am getting scared to use any keys other than the normal characters...this is so frustrating.

If you can solve that one it would be a big help for starters!

(by the way, it will not allow me to use the cursor keys either, neither up nor down nor side to side)

Secondly, in the "buy Me A Beer Page" it says you dont (fuck its gone again!!!!) apostrophe.....what is wrong here?

Need a Pay Pal account - can you describe the process required to donate a few bucks WITHOUT a Pay Pal account? as I am fucked if I can find a way!

3rdly, (with no apostrophes or forward slashes.) I understand that no one has a UNIQUE IP Address, the address is doled out when you log on, as long as you are connected you keep that address...yes or no?

The NO-IP site simply logs your initial address, you can then allocate a UNIQUE name, and everytime Mr TOT changes your IP, No-IP remembers it.

It has nothing to do with static addresses, it is about allocating a type of USERNAME, e.g MR_DUMB_FUCK.No-Ip.biz, then everytime TOT changed my IP (DHCP) address, this site would monitor the change by TOT and allocate MR_DUMB_FUCK.No-IP.biz to the new address, hence, regardless of where you were in the world, and regardless of what TOT changes your DHCP asddress, if you log on using MR_DUMB_FUCK..... you would always be in the right place.

What i was trying to explain, is that MR_DUMB_FUCK is UNIQUE, supposedly (but not with DYNDNS, there were already at least 4 MR_DUMB_FUCKS out there, one of whom I was able to access his router.

check out the site and you will probably understand what I mean better than i can explain...itS (no apostrophe) not a registered domain, but a free way of logging your Dynamic IP address to a simple name, that is supposed to be UNIQUE.

Please, find out what is wrong with this fucking site and its (NO APOSTOPHE) as it makes typing a simple message HELL to the point I am going to kill someone or break something!

**Missismiggins** · 28-10-2009, 08:18 PM

Let me try and explai (without apostrophes and forward slashes or cursour keys)

LetS imagine, I log on to the internet today, and TOT doles out to me an IP address of 118.172.120.25, if i am registered with No-IP, and my registered name with No-IP is Fuckwit, then anyone that types in http: (now try doing this without the fucking forward slash!)

you see what I mean, if they type in fuckwit under the http protocol, they get directed to 118.172.120.25

Now, suppose i set up my webcam and use something like media encoder to broadcast this on a port like for instance port 3333, then, anyone who wants to see my webcam can type in to media player URL either

1: http and the colon,slash 118. (The Home and End Keys dont work either) 172.120.25:3333 forward slash.

2: The second option would be to type in the http blah blah, then the address fuckwit:3333 forward slash, and this does the same thing.

Now, should my router quit or TOT change my IP to 118.172.120.30 then anyone trying to access using this address is fucked.

But if you use No-Ip, then http fuckwit will already be updated to the new address, and you just need to enter the port 3333....simple eh? (question mark works)

I am using the "virtual server", it works the same I guess, but the Belkin doesnT have the same options as the Dlink - but at least it works. itS basically opening a port to allow access, much in the same way as forwarding.

At least it seems to work, when I check the torrent software it says all is OK.

But yes, the security issue is a bit of a worry, for instance, if was to give you my No-IP address and my open port to the webcam, could you get in and do some damage?

All those keys works for me and no one else has previously mentioned that they can't use those keys.
So DUMB_FUCK where do you think the problem is? Maybe at ToT again?

do some damage huh, I doubt if anybody could do more damage than you seem to have done already to yourself

For some reason, if I hit the keys I mention, it stops you from typing and brings up a small box at the bottom left of the screen that says "QUICK FIND (LINKS ONLY)"

It is only this site, no where else and it is annoying especially for a dumb fuck like myself!
