Identify your network on the Internet

Advanced > Administrator > Management

Since most ISPs constantly change your home IP address, providing access to devices on

your home or small office Local Area Network (such as IP Cameras) from the Internet

requires setting up a Dynamic DNS service and entering the parameters into this

management area. Dynamic DNS services allow your router to confirm its location to the

given Dynamic DNS service, thereby providing the Dynamic DNS service with the ability

to provide a virtual fixed IP address for your network. This means that even though your

ISP is always changing your IP address, the Dynamic DNS service will be able to identify

your network using a fixed address

—

one that can be used to view home IP Camera and

other devices on your local area network.

Note:

First, you will need to sign up for one of the DDNS service providers listed in the

Server Address

drop-down list

.

1. Sign up for one of the DDNS available service providers list under

Access your router management page

”

on page 9).

3. Click on

Advanced

and click on Administrator, then click on

Management

DDNS Settings

section. Click
