Note that while MiniPortal responds to changes in your IP address almost immediately, DNS servers typically will take two or three minutes to update their databases.
Static IP Address: An address that is assigned to your computer that never changes.
Dave Simons,
Internet Entrepeneur

When your IP address changes it notifies our DNS server of the change, keeping your static hostname linked up to your dynamically assigned IP address!
Mike Enlow,
Internet Marketer

If you change from IP address or MX records to a forwarding option, again there may be a delay before you see the changes until the existing DNS records expire in your ISPs DNS.
The IP Address and Name for this hop are remembered, so a DNS lookup will not be necessary on subsequent traces unless the IP Address changes.
Changes to IP address, DNS, Contact Information or other entries may take up to 24 hours.

I have Belkin router "G". Works OK, but I have a problem and nobody got an answer. My DSL provider (AT&T) changes my WAN IP address every 30 min (sometimes). So, I should change this address as well to make my application work. I know how to connect to No-ip.com site, what to do and etc. Do we have some another way to do it? Thanks in advance.
