Description

This article is from the AmiTCP/IP FAQ, by Mike Meyer with numerous contributions by others.

8.5: Can I use AmiTCP with a dynamic IP address?

Yes. You can use the Arexx script on Aminet or follow the above steps, but before you start AmiTCP you must change your startnet script to your assigned IP number. This goes for any other dynamic addresses (such as your hostname).

Also, the PPP driver on Aminet has special options for connecting to dialup hosts. Consult the excellent documentation within the archive.
