Manually Configuring your Modem-Router

DDNS

DDNS (Dynamic Domain Name Server) provides a way to tie a domain name to the Modem- Routers WAN IP. DDNS allows your domain name to follow your IP Address automatically by having your DNS records changed when your IP Address changes.

With a DDNS connection you can host your own web site, email server,

FTP site and more at your own location even if you have a dynamic IP Address.

This Modem-Router supports both DynDNS (www.dyndns.org) and TZO (www.TZO.com) DDNS connections only. You will need to register an account with either of these Dynamic DNS websites in order to utilize this function.
