Dynamic DNS

Any service you provide on the Internet can be accessed by a Domain names. Your router's Public IP address is assigned to this domain name. If your Internet Service Provider for your local network's WAN connection assigns the IP address dynamically, the IP address of the router can change. The assignment to the domain name will no longer be valid and your service will no longer be available.

In this case, you must ensure that the assignment of the IP address to the domain name is updated regularly. This is handled by the dynamic DNS service (DynDNS). You can use the DynDNS service to assign your Gigaset SX541 WLAN dsl an individual static domain name on the Internet even if it does not have a static IP address.

There are various providers on the Internet offering a free DynDNS service. The Gigaset SX541 WLAN dsl uses the DynDNS service from DynDNS.org (http://www.DynDNS.org). If you use the service of this DynDNS provider, your service can be reached on the Internet as a subdomain of one of the DynDNS.org domains.
