hi,
what is the cheapest way ot get a public IP in lebanon?

i know that IDM price is 100$ per month

is there anythig cheaper?

thank you
Why do you need one?

It's likely that you can get by with DynDNS.

This is a free service that will let whatever computer you are trying to access update the server with its address, and the service will point a free host name at that address dynamically.

Does that help?
Hi, thanks for the reply,
actually i need it for a demo of a web application, and it's complicated to host it because i'm using jsp, and all hosting services are for php or you have to pay extra for java/jsp.

i checked DynDNS, it still needs a fix IP adress, or am i missing something?
Not at all the dyndns.com have a great service, you just need to check that your modem supports the dynddns thingy, you of course DONT need a fixed IP, that's the point of dyndns you can get a fixed hostname for a dynamic IP, you register there with something similar to dyyyy.dyndns.com and you configure your modem with the dyndns credentials and hostname, every time your modem changes its IP it will send the update to the dyndns servers and they will update the ip of dyyyy.dyndns.com, therefore dyyy.dyndns.org will always resolve to your modem's IP which makes easy for you to use it for a demo hosting, game server, remote desktop ...

Get a VPS, and you can install whatever you want on it, and it will have a fixed public IP. And it will be much faster and more useable then if hosted on your own PC. Prices start around $15-$20 yet there is even cheaper but I don't know about the quality of the cheaper offerings.

My DSL connection has a public IP. It's not a fixed IP, but it's public.

The people who answered before me probably got mixed up between fixed an public IP. Fixed IP = it doesn't change. Public IP = It can be accessed from anywhere.
When talking about Fixed IP or Dynamic IP, I definitely meant Fixed Public IP and Dynamic Public IP, dyndns wont work on Fixed/dynamic Private IPs of course.
hi thank you all for your help,
i searched before for VPS i couldn't find less than 100$ :s
I'm still strugling with DynDNS, but you put me on the right track. Thanks

linode.org
slicehost.com

(those are really well known)

And you're welcome :)

If you google for "cheap VPS" you might even find cheaper.

The links I gave you are mostly Linux VPS. Do you want Windows servers?
Can you list your exact requirements here?

If you are struggling with dyndns here is a quick tutorial, it is a simple task dont worry:
1- first of all go to dyndns.com and register an account there using your email, choose the hostname you want, example dyyy.dyndns.org and activate your service, all these steps of course will be done on their website.

2- Once you activated your services you are ready to use it, go to your modem (it must support dyndns) mine is a TP-Link and it does support this.
Navigate inside your modem, on my modem it looks like this:

Just follow the steps it is very easy. once you do the hostname you created will always resolve to your modems IP and if your modem restarts, or your turn it off and on .. your modem will send the update to dyndns you dont have to do anything.

If you cant make this work and wish to rent a VPS make your researches because there is definitely cheaper VPSs out there with very good quality and low latencies.
wow thank you for all the help.
this was exactly what i want.
I think i'll use VPS.
just out of curiosity how do u navigate inside ur modem? because my problem wasn't with DyDNS it was because i couldn't access my IP, i could ping it but not access it from my browser.
