What domain are you using to connect to your computer?

Because www.monitorwaves.no-ip.org does not exist in DNS. You can check with the dig command:

Code:

dig www.monitorwaves.no-ip.org

; <<>> DiG 9.2.1 <<>> www.monitorwaves.no-ip.org
;; global options:  printcmd
;; Got answer:

ok i have changed some settings for my DNS. The problem is that i am runing the web server on port 8081 and the dns is trying to connect to port 80 so how can i fix this?

 

DNS doesn't direct you to a port, it simply tells you the IP address, nothing more, nothing less.
If you want to connect to port 8081 in your browser, you must use http://www.example.com:8081.

www.monitorwaves.no-ip.org still doesn't exist (btw, you can check that yourself with the dig command):

Code:

dig www.monitorwaves.no-ip.org

; <<>> DiG 9.2.1 <<>> www.monitorwaves.no-ip.org
;; global options:  printcmd

I think you must register www.monitorwaves.no-ip.org at no-ip first.

 

That is what i have done i have setup a DNS called monitorwaves.no-ip.org at no-ip.com. Is there any why i could pay to get the domain monitorwaves.com and it redirects the port?

 

i will take a look at that site. O yea i should have a dynamic IP but my ip has not changed in about a mouth so i dont know what that is all about, its just wrong that i have about 3MB Download and 738 Upload or some were near that yet they block port 80

 

You have registered monitorwaves.no-ip.org, but not www.monitorwaves.no-ip.org. That's a difference!
