Dynamic DNS
The Dynamic DNS function allows you to alias a dynamic IP address to a static hostname, allowing
users whose ISP does not assign them a static IP address to use a domain name. This is especially
useful for hosting servers via your ADSL connection, so that anyone wishing to connect to you may
use your domain name, rather than having to use your dynamic IP address, which changes from
time to time. This dynamic IP address is the WAN IP address of the router, which is assigned to you
by your ISP.
Here users can register different WAN interfaces with different DNS(es).
Click
Add
to register a WAN interface with the exact DNS.
You will first need to register and establish an account with the Dynamic DNS provider using their
website, for example
Dynamic DNS Server:
Select the DDNS service you have established an account with.
Interface:
Select the Interface that is bound to the registered Domain name.
Host Name, Username and Password:
Enter your registered domain name and your username
and password for this service.

User can register different DDNS to different interfaces.
Examples:
Note
first users have to go to the Dynamic DNS registration service provider to register
an account.
User
test
register two Dynamic Domain Names in DDNS provider
.
1. pppoe_0_0_35 with DDNS:
www.hometest.com
using username/password test/test
2. ipoe_eth0 with DDNS:
www.hometest1.com
using username/password test/test.

correctly resolve Domain name to access the internet.
DNS Proxy:
Select whether to enable or disable DNS Proxy function, default is enabled.
Host name of the Broadband Router:
Enter the host name of the router. Default is home.gateway.
