PROBLEMS
Number one the IP address you are using is your private IP address, meaning that if anyone is going to hear you they have to be on your local network.
Try going to http://www.whatismyip.com and use that IP address to give to your friends, this IP address is your public IP addess and anyone on the internet can access it. Be warned that many ISP's change your IP address so once you get things working if it stops then you should check your IP address first.
Next to forward your ports login to your router. http://192.168.0.1/
Under the "Advanced" tab click on "Virtual Servers". Enter your private IP address and the port that you've setup JetCast to use. (By default it's 9000.) Make sure you hit the "Apply" button, you should receive a message stating "Rules successfully applied" or something to that affect.
After all that you're ready to try broadcasting. If you're broadcasting in MP3 your link is http://publicip:port/listen.pls
Try this link to see if your streaming or not
http://www.radiotoolbox.com/online_tools/stream_test.php
It will want to say that "A server is running on this port!"
If not, you are not broacasting. Make sure your settings do not include an external server if your not using one.
Also, Rule #1. Always reboot your comptuer after making changes.
Not a restart, a cold reboot.

CREATING A NO-IP.COM ACCOUNT
Are you setting up a web site, ftp site, mail server or any other type of online service that you want people to reach. Then here are seven simple steps to follow to get yourself setup and online with No-IP.com.
1) Create an account
2) Confirm your account
3) Login to your account
4) Add a host or domain to your account
5) Making it dynamic
6) Configure your router
7) Run your services
Step 1: Create and account
To create an account with No-IP.com simply click the "Sign-up Free!" link at the top of the page, or click here. Fill in the required fields on the new account form and click the "Sign Up Now!" button on the top of the page.
Step 2: Confirm your account
Once you have entered your account information into the new user form, and have submitted it, you will receive an email to the address you provided. You will need to check that account and look for the email from No-IP.com. Inside the email you will see a link to confirm your account, click this link. (Yahoo and Hotmail customers click here)
Step 3: Login to your account
Now that you have confirmed your account, you can login to No-IP.com. On the top of the page just below the No-IP logo. You will see an area to enter your email address and password. Enter the information that you signed up with, and click "Login".
Step 4: Add a host or domain to your account
You should now be logged into the No-IP.com members section. Here you can create a host by selecting "Add host" from the "Hosts/Redirects" menu,
or you can add a domain to the system by selecting "Plus" then "Add my domain" from the left hand navigation. When adding a domain, follow the onscreen instructions.
Step 5: Making it dynamic
Now that you have a host or domain in your account, if you have a dynamic IP address, you'll want to install our Dynamic Update Client. This is a free download from our downloads tab at the top of the site.
After installing the Dynamic Update Client, be sure to configure it with your Email address and password that you used to login to this site.
Step 6: Configure your router
If you have a router/firewall in place on the network where your pc/server resides. You will need to make sure that it is configured to allow the appropriate traffic into the destination machine. Please consult your router's manual and look for port forwarding. Common ports to forward are port 80 for web, port 21 for ftp, and port 25 for mail. Only forward the ports that you need to use. To verify that your router is setup correctly, visit www.canyouseeme.org.
Step 7: Run your services
With the above configuration in place you can now run your services and address you machine with the host or domain you created! If you run into trouble be sure to check our FAQ and our Tips section for help.
