Dynamic DNS

Any service you provide on the Internet can be accessed via a Domain name. 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 may 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 constantly updated. This is handled by the dynamic DNS service (DynDNS). You can use the DynDNS service to assign your Gigaset SE366 WLAN 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 who offer a free DynDNS service. The Gigaset SE366 WLAN uses the DynDNS service from DynDNS.org and from TZO.org. If you use this DynDNS provider's service, then your service can be reached on the Internet as a subdomain of one of this provider's domains.

If you have activated the device's DynDNS function, it will monitor its public IP address. When this changes, it sets up a connection to the Internet site and updates its IP address there.

Note:

You will have to open an account with the provider before you can use the Gigaset SE366 WLAN's DynDNS function. Follow the instructions on the provider's web site. Enter the user data during configuration of the router.
