firmware. You can then use the DIR-320 Firmware Upgrade Utility

included with the Router to transfer the new firmware to the Router. Once

you have downloaded the new firmware to your computer, use the

DDNS Setting

The DIR-320 supports DDNS or Dynamic Domain Name Service.

Dynamic DNS allows a dynamic public IP address to be associated with

a static host name in any of the many domains, allowing access to a

specific host from various locations on the Internet. With this function

enabled, remote access to a host will be allowed by clicking a URL

hyperlink in the following form:

dlinkddns.com

Because many ISPs

assign public IP addresses using DHCP, it can be difficult to locate a

specific host on the LAN using the standard DNS. For example, if you

are running a public web server or VPN server on your LAN, DDNS

ensures that the host can be located from the Internet if the public IP

address changes. DDNS requires that an account be set up with one of

the supported DDNS servers.

To implement Dynamic DNS, first tick the

Enable DDNS

checkbox in the

window above, then choose the

Server Address

from the list in the

pull-down menu. Next, enter the

Host Name

of the LAN to be accessed,

and the

Username

and

Password

for the DDNS account. Click the

Save Settings

button to save changes made. Use the

DDNS Account

Testing

button to make sure the DDNS service is functioning.
