Configuring DDNS Settings

The router supports the Dynamic Domain Name System (DDNS) feature. DDNS enables you to assign a fixed host and domain name to a dynamic Internet IP address. It is useful when you are hosting your own web server, FTP server, or another server behind the router. Before you can use this feature, you must sign up for DDNS service at a DDNS service provider, such as www.dyndns.org or www.changeip.com. Once you have signed up, write down your User Name and Password assigned by the service.

To access the screen, click Networking > Dynamic DNS.
