How to make server IP address static

Question

I have a server and multiclients. Currently I can connect them. However, I need to change my code for sever ip address every single time I move to different place as my IP address change. Is that any possible coding to make a permanent ip address for my server so that my client can connect to it no matter where I go?

Thanks Vikas. May I ask it that possible to assign a static IP address for sever programmatically? I have tried with this code, but it doesnt work in my project. private void setIP( string ip_address) { ManagementClass objMC = new ManagementClass( "Win32_NetworkAdapterConfiguration" ); ManagementObjectCollection objMOC = objMC.GetInstances(); foreach (ManagementObject objMO in objMOC) { try { ManagementBaseObject setIP; ManagementBaseObject newIP = objMO.GetMethodParameters( "EnableStatic" ); newIP[ "IPAddress" ] = new IPAddress[] { IPAddress.Parse(ip_address) } ; setIP = objMO.InvokeMethod( "EnableStatic" , newIP, null ); Writelog( new IP assigned is " + ip_address); } catch (Exception ex) { } } }
