I did setup a static IP, I'm about to login to confirm my DNS setting are correct I'll reply with the results thanks for the reply
*EDIT
Just checked and noticed I didn't have anything setup under DNS for an IP for the DNS server, not sure what I should have it set as? I just set it to the same DNS server IP my PC is using but that didn't work and it was really just a shot in the dark anyways so I wasn't expecting much

How should I go about determining what the DNS server I should point this towards? Thanks
*EDIT
Resolved! Thank you for pointing me in the right direction! I ended up copying the DDNS IP server setting found in my modem, not sure if any DNS server would have worked or if that specific one was what it needed but it worked, I also tried 8.8.8.8 with no luck but to be fair I didn't wait very long to see if it would work. Once I typed in the DDNS ip from my modem it worked instantly.
Appreciate the replies from ESKENDERNG and mdgm
