• You want to link your router to a dynamic DNS service.
CONFIGURING FOR A STATIC IP ADDRESS
Follow the procedure below if your ISP provided you with a static
IP address. If your ISP gave you a four-part number as “your
address,” it is probably a static IP address. If your ISP did not
give you an IP address at all, you do not have a static IP address.
If you are not sure if you have a static IP address or what it might
be, contact your ISP.
To complete this configuration process, you will need the
following information from your ISP:
•
Your static IP address (a four-part number separated by
dots or periods)
• The subnet mask (also a four-part number separated by
periods). The default value is 255.255.255.0
•
The default gateway address. This is the IP address of
your ISP’s router.
•
The IP address of the Domain Name System (DNS)
server(s) used by the ISP.
Once you have all this information, you are ready to configure
your router to communicate with your ISP:
1. Open a browser window and login to the router.
2. Click Basic Configuration, then WAN. This displays the
WAN Configuration screen.
3. At the top of the screen, click the radio button marked Static
IP. This displays the Static IP screen (see Figure 12).
