Wireless-N Gigabit Router with Storage Link

The Setup Tab - DDNS

The Router offers a Dynamic Domain Name System (DDNS) feature. DDNS lets you assign a fixed host and domain name to a dynamic Internet IP address. It is useful when you are hosting your own website, FTP server, or other server behind the Router.

Before you can use this feature, you need to sign up for DDNS service at one of two DDNS service providers, DynDNS.org or TZO.com. If you do not want to use this feature, keep the default setting, Disable.

DDNS

DDNS Service

If your DDNS service is provided by DynDNS.org, then select DynDNS.org from the drop-down menu. If your DDNS service is provided by TZO, then select TZO.com. The features available on the DDNS screen will vary, depending on which DDNS service provider you use.

DynDNS.org

Username, Password, and Host Name. Enter the settings of the account you set up with DynDNS.org.

System. Select the DynDNS service you use: Dynamic, Static, or Custom.

Mail Exchange (Optional). Enter the address of your mail exchange server, so e-mails to your DynDNS address go to your mail server.

Backup MX. This feature allows the mail exchange server to be a backup. To enable this feature, keep the default, Enabled. To disable the feature, select Disabled. If you are not sure which setting to select, keep the default, Enabled.

WildCard. This setting enables or disables wildcards for your host. For example, if your DDNS address is myplace.dyndns.org and you enable wildcards, then x.myplace.dyndns.org will work as well (x is the wildcard). To enable wildcards, keep the default, Enabled. To disable wildcards, select Disabled. If you are not sure which setting to select, keep the default, Enabled.

Status. The status of the DDNS service connection is displayed here.

Update. To manually trigger an update, click this button.
