Configuring Network + Hamachi + Static IP

Kaistar

Tech Rank 3/5

This is going to be really long (I think) so please bare with me.

I'm trying to set up Hamachi for my girlfriend's computer, but somehow it keeps on failing to connect. I've searched the Support pages and apparently it could be caused by the router not forwarding the ports. So, I trawled around the website more and found instructions.

Here's the page showing how to forward the port with that particular router model and Hamachi. However, the problem occurs when it asks me to set the Static IP of the computer. Instructions for that was given here.

This is where I face problems. Instead of seeing two DNS Servers, under ipconfig/all > Local Area Connection, I only see ONE. So I took down that DNS Server address, and just to be sure I attempted to double check it with the router's Status page. At this page, I do not find DNS server but instead I found DHCP Enabled. DNS can only be found under WAN.

So I'm having trouble setting up the Static IP, which results in me not being able to set up Hamachi's port forwarding properly as instructed on this page.

Oh, the error hamachi reports is "Connection to the mediation server bibi.hamachi.cc has been unexpectedly lost".

So... Any remedies?
