Dns not resolved with correct ip

Hello all

I keep having the same issue every time my dynamic IP changes. Sometimes the DNS records are not updated correctly on the game tracker. That is, my DynDNS updates correctly with the new IP—I have verified this—but the game tracker continues to show my old IP. What’s strange is that it shows my server as online, and as soon as I click on it, it says it doesn’t exist. Please, could someone look into this issue before my servers disappear and I lose my rank?

My DNS is: power-net.ddns.net
My Servers: Call of duty 2 , Medal of Honor: Allied Assault

My new IP is 188.4.144.34 , and it hasn’t been updated for two days in the GameTracker DNS.

Please, I would really appreciate it if you could resolve this issue as soon as possible, because for the third time I am about to lose my servers.

My new IP is 188.4.144.34 for the time, and it hasn’t been updated for two days in the GameTracker DNS.

This service is meant for servers with static ip.
When you add a server you see a message next to the IP/Domain field "Domain names must resolve to a static ip."

I think you’re whrong. The domain name is used to resolve the dynamic IP to a static domain name, so the game tracker can know what your dynamic IP is—unless something has changed and I’m not aware of it.

Here are the screenshots proving that both of my servers are online, so any configuration on my side is working correctly. The game tracker is not resolving my actual IP address. Additionally, I have verified that my DNS corresponds to my actual IP address.

It now appears to be working properly—suddenly. It started functioning correctly and resolved my actual IP. However, this happened after a full four days, which is not normal. If the update had been delayed any longer, my server would have been automatically deleted. Many thanks to those who took an interest and solved my problem. I recommend that this be resolved permanently, as I have noticed the same issue keeps occurring.
