Static ip for your Counter Strike server

I already wrote a guide about how to create your own counter-strike dedicated server but in this post I will tell you about how to get the static ip for your counter strike server...
It is common that when you restart your modem so your wan ip changes and you have to look for your new ip and give it to your friends but now you don't have to do that...

I guess you have often seen the servers with named ip e.g cs-utilities.com:27015

So you have to create the same type of ip for your cs 1.6/css/cs:cz server

Follow the guide given below :)

Procedure:

1) Go to https://www.dyndns.com

2) Make an account there & login using that.

3) After you have logged in go to this link https://www.dyndns.com/account/services/hosts/add.html

4) Type the hostname you want & then select domain from drop-down menu
5) Tick on "Create Wildcard alias.."
6) Select Service type as "Host with IP address"
7) In IP Address dont type thing but click on "Use auto detected...."
8) Your current IP will be filled automatically.
9) Then click Create Host
10) It will show you bill but dont worry :P , that is $0 so its free & safe, CLICK NEXT
11) Then Click Activate Services and your hostname is ready to use
12) Now you have to download a software which will update that hostname to your IP each time your IP changes
13) If you use windows go here https://www.dyndns.com/support/clients/windows.html
14) Download it and install, Just keep on clicking next, when it ask whether to install it
as Service, tick mark "Install the Dyndns...."
15) After installing it will launch and ask your username/password
16) Type the username\password & click OK
17) You will see your hostname in that list, tick mark it and click Apply & OK

NOTE : It should keep running in background else ur server hostname will not work.
