ok so here is a question for all the smart people :), is there a way to make a dynamic ip wan adress stay the same w/o having to ask my isp to change it to static ip, cause i know its like 300+ $$ a month so i was wondering if it would be possible to keep it the same.

Why im asking for this is because of the folowing situation im in. The cstrike server which i finally got running, changes external ip i believe once a week, which my lease date is set too *cant put it higher* ** ive read somewhere your external ip changes before the lease date expires**, so people cannot save this server to favorites, cause if they do the external ip will change whenever the time is ready and they will always think the server is offline. Now id like a way to prevent that from happening other than buying static ip if this is possible

thank you in advance :)
