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.
