5.6.2 DDNS

DDNS means Dynamic Domain Name System. The ISP often provides you with a dynamic

IP address when you connect to the Internet via your ISP. It means that the public IP

address assigned to your router changes each time you access the Internet. The Dynamic

DNS feature lets you assign a domain name to a dynamic WAN IP address. It allows the

router to update its online WAN IP address mappings on the specified Dynamic DNS server.

Once the router is online, you will be able to use the registered domain name to access the

router or internal virtual servers from the Internet. It is particularly helpful if you host a web

server, FTP server, or other server behind the router.

Before you user the Dynamic DNS feature, you have to apply for free DDNS service to the

DDNS service providers. The router provides up to three accounts from three different

DDNS service providers. This router supports three service providers: DynDns, no-ip and

3322. Please log in the websites to register for free DDNS service.
