DDNS
The UT-300R2 supports Dynamic DNS used to share your IP address that is assigned by your ISP, dynamically. Since your ISP assigns an IP address that changes, if you want PCs from the WAN (Internet) to be able to find servers on your LAN, you can establish an account with a DDNS service provider. The Dynamic DNS service updates your IP address − as it is changed and assigned by your ISP − and then updates a link between your new IP address and an existing URL. In this way, if a user on the Internet types in your URL, then that user’s PC will still be able to find your web site, even though your IP address has changed.
