9.1 Configuring the router 79
feature, Your router will lead you to the digital receiver when you access your router with its IP address.
Your router may be assigned to a dynamic IP address by an In- ternet service provider. So if the router has rebooted, you can- not access it as long as someone in your home does not inform you of the changed IP address. However, many routers sup- port Dynamic Domain Name System (DDNS) service, which can settle this problem.
If you use a DDNS service, you can access your router with a domain name.
The instruction on how to use the DDNS service is as follows:
1.Make an account on a web site providing DDNS service, which should be supported by your router.
2.Configure your router with the account so that it can communicate with the web site.
