| This is where you need to go to get setup & sign on:
* Sign-Up *
Enter your "static" IP..but also *important* - check the box that says "dynamic" - you must do both!
A very important factor is the way you setup the account. Even if you have a static IP, you must create the account as a dynamic IP. You have to check the dynamic box and enter your static IP. For security and privacy, BBR uses a cookie feature so that if you are logged in, only you can see your static IP graph. But for those that are not logged in, the graph is not visible, it will appear broken. So setting the graph to a dynamic IP will allow everyone to see the graph while the IP will remain hidden. If you have a static IP you do not need to run a DDNS client. Just set the monitor for "dynamic" and then type in your IP address in the "monitor this static address" box.
Make sure you are "pingable".
Make sure when you're done to click "Create Monitor"..
Then go to your profile page and add it to the profile + "drop-down" menu.
»/prefs/flair
Use the drop down to add an entry to "My Home Connection"
That way your connection speed, modem, and router info show.....
