Dynamic DNS

The DDNS feature allows you to host a server (Web, FTP, Game Server, etc…) using a domain name

that you have purchased (www.whateveryournameis.com) with your dynamically assigned IP address.

service provider, your friends can enter in your domain name to connect to your server no matter

what your IP address is.

registered with a dynamic DNS service provider.

Enter the password or key provided by your service provider.
