Dynamic DNS
The Dynamic DNS service allows you to bind the device's public IP address to
a static hostname, allowing your computer to be more easily accessed from
various locations on the Internet. Most broadband Internet Service Providers
assign dynamic (changing) IP addresses. Using a DDNS service provider, your
friends can enter in your domain name to connect to your server no matter what
your IP address is. When this feature is enabled, this device will automatically
update your DDNS records whenever your IP address changes.

DDNS service provider. You can also select a pre-defined
DDNS service provider from the drop-down list.
