DDNS

The DDNS page allows you to make use of a DDNS server. Dynamic DNS (DDNS)

allows a dynamic IP address to be aliased to a static, pre-defined host name so that the

host can be easily contacted by other hosts on the internet even if its IP address

changes. This means you can host a server on your LAN that can be accessed from

anywhere on the Internet.

Caution:

Some service providers may consider connection of such a server to be a

breach of your service agreement.

The Cable Modem/Router supports a dynamic DNS client compatible with the Dynamic
