Can you guys help me please ?
i am trying to host a game server that i used to host from IP address 75.146.20.20
I no longer have this static IP address so i wanted to try NO-IP thing.
Created account/downloaded client

Problem is that when i run my game server, IP address is different and not 75.146.20.20 but i need it to be this address because server was added to favorites by many users.

Is this tutorial only for web hosting ? Because it seems to me that this is only good for web hosting and i dont need it because my web is hosted already.

All i want is people trying to connect to 75.146.20.20 be directed to my existing address, thats all.
Is this even possible ?
Because i dont see any host options to create IP address but host only. I dont need host, i need IP address instead and it wont let me do it

Please help

Thanks in advance.

Sorry mate. It's not possible. That IP is already released to the ISP's IP pool and might be allotted to some other users. You need to either contact the ISP and get it back or ask your friends to update your bookmarks with the no-ip url.
