Timeout
The time between periodic updates to the Dynamic DNS, if your dynamic IP address has
not changed. The timeout period is entered in hours.
Note:
If a dynamic DNS update fails for any reason (for example, when incorrect parameters are
entered), the router automatically disables the Dynamic DNS feature and records the failure in the
log.
Note:
After configuring the router for dynamic DNS, you can open a browser and navigate to the
URL for your domain (for example
) and the router will attempt to
forward the request to port 80 on your LAN. If, however, you do this from a LAN-side computer
and there is no virtual server defined for port 80, the router will return the router's configuration
home page. Refer to the
Advanced

Virtual Server
configuration page to set up a a virtual
server.
