Field

Meaning

UPnP

Select this checkbox to activate UPnP. Be aware

 

that anyone could use a UPnP application to open

 

the web configurator's login screen without entering

 

the WEBSHARE Wireless ROUTER ADSL2+ IP

 

address

Auto-Configured

Select this check box to allow UPnP-enabled

 

applications to automatically configure the

 

WEBSHARE Wireless ROUTER ADSL2+ so that

 

they can communicate through the WEBSHARE

 

Wireless ROUTER ADSL2+, for example by using

 

NAT traversal, UPnP applications automatically

 

reserve a NAT forwarding port in order to

 

communicate with another UPnP enabled device;

 

this eliminates the need to manually configure port

 

forwarding for the UPnP enabled application

8.5 DDNS

The Dynamic DNS function allows you to alias a dynamic IP address to a static hostname, allowing users whose ISP does not assign them a static IP address to use a domain name. This is especially useful for hosting servers via your ADSL connection, so that anyone wishing to connect to you may use your domain name, rather than having to use your dynamic IP address, which changes from time to time. This dynamic IP address is the WAN IP address of the router, which is assigned to you by your ISP.

You will first need to register and establish an account with the Dynamic DNS provider using their website, for example http://www.dyndns.org/
