server: DHCP-woes
#7
Static LAN IP and static WAN (public) IP are not the same thing. Static LAN IP is just so that the port forwarding on your router doesn't need to be changed. I don't know if you need a static WAN IP for AC or not since I've never run a server, but a simple solution would be to use a (free) service like DynDNS.org, to get a static hostname that points to a dynamic WAN IP.

Can you just clarify what you mean by other people can't see your server? You mean it's not listed on the masterserver list in the AC client? Or are your clan dudes trying to connect to your server directly? Maybe you're giving them the wrong WAN IP. Again, having a static hostname solution is the easiest thing to do. Usually, getting a static WAN IP from your Internet Service Provider costs money, or worst case they won't/can't do it.
