address, you do not know in advance what your IP address is, and the address can change
frequently. In this case, you can use a commercial Dynamic DNS service. This type of service
lets you register your domain to their IP address and forwards traffic directed at your domain
to your frequently changing IP address.
If your Internet service provider assigns a private WAN IP address (such as10.x.x.x), the
Dynamic DNS service does not work because private addresses are not routed on the
Internet.
Your gateway contains a client that can connect to the Dynamic DNS service that
DynDNS.org provided. First, visit their website at
and obtain an
account and host name that you configure in the gateway. Then, whenever your Internet
service provider–assigned IP address changes, your gateway automatically contacts the
Dynamic DNS service provider, logs in to your account, and registers your new IP address. If
your host name is hostname, for example, you can reach your gateway at
Set Up Dynamic DNS
To set up Dynamic DNS:
1.
Launch a web browser from a computer or wireless device that is connected to the
network.
2.
Type
http://routerlogin.net
or
www.routerlogin.com
.
A login screen displays.
3.
Enter the gateway user name and password.
The user name is
admin
. The default password is
password
. The user name and
password are case-sensitive.
The BASIC Home screen displays.
4.
Select
Advanced >
Advanced Setup > Dynamic DNS
.
5.
Register for an account with one of the Dynamic DNS service providers whose URLs display
in the
Service Provider
list.
6.
Select the
Use a Dynamic DNS Service
check box.
7.
In the
Service Provider
list, select the URL for your Dynamic DNS service provider.

For example, if your Dynamic DNS service provider is DynDNS.org, select
www.DynDNS.org
.
8.
In the
Host Name
field, type the host name (or domain name) that your Dynamic DNS
service provider gave you.
9.
In the
User Name
field, type the user name for your Dynamic DNS account.
This name is the name that you use to log in to your account, not your host name.
10.
In the
Password
field, type the password (or key) for your Dynamic DNS account.

•
IP Address
. The IP address that the gateway assigned to this device when it joined
the network. This number can change if a device is disconnected and rejoins the
network.
•
MAC Address
. The unique MAC address for each device does not change. The MAC
address is typically shown on the product label.
•
Connection Type
. The method used to access to the gateway, wired or wireless.

Custom Static Routes
Static routes provide routing information to your gateway. In most situations, you don’t need
to create custom static routes. You must configure static routes only for unusual cases such
as multiple gateways or multiple IP subnets on your network.
As an example of when a static route is needed, consider the following case:
•
Your primary Internet access is through a cable modem to an ISP.
•
Your home network includes an ISDN gateway for connecting to the company where you
are employed. This gateway’s address on your LAN is 192.168.0.100.
•
Your company’s network address is 134.177.0.0.
When you first configured your gateway, two implicit static routes were created. A default
route was created with your ISP as the gateway, and a second static route was created to
your local network for all 192.168.0.x addresses. With this configuration, if you attempt to
access a device on the 134.177.0.0 network, your gateway forwards your request to the ISP.
The ISP forwards your request to the company where you are employed, and the company’s
firewall denies the request.
In this case you must define a static route, telling your gateway that 134.177.0.0 should be
accessed through the ISDN gateway at 192.168.0.100. This example assumes the following
settings:
•
The
Destination IP Address
and
IP Subnet Mask
fields specify that this static route
applies to all 134.177.x.x addresses.
•
The
Gateway IP Address
field specifies that all traffic for these addresses is forwarded
to the ISDN gateway at 192.168.0.100.
•
A metric value of
1
works because the ISDN gateway is on the LAN.
•
Private
is selected only as a precautionary security measure in case RIP is activated.

By default, the
Active
check box is selected.
9.
Type the IP address of the final destination.
10.
Type the IP subnet mask for this destination. If the destination is a single host, type
255.255.255.255
.
11.
Type the gateway IP address, which must be a gateway on the same LAN segment as the
gateway.
12.
Type a number from 1 through 15 as the metric value.
This value represents the number of gateways between your network and the destination.
Usually, a setting of 2 or 3 works, but if this link is a direct connection, set it to
1
.
13.
Click the
Apply
button.
The route is added to the table on the Static Routes screen.
