Management (Touch): Dynamic DNS

The Dynamic Domain Name System (DDNS) is a method to keep a web
domain name, or web address, linked to a changing IP address as
most Internet Providers do not provide static IP addresses.

To use DDNS, you must first set up an account with a DDNS provider.
The Router supports two of these providers (TZO and DynDNS). Once
the DDNS service has been set up you will be given a login and
password. Enter it on this page along with your registered DDNS
domain. Once configured, the DDNS service will constantly track the
IP address of your Internet connection. Each time your Internet Provider changes your IP address, the Router
will inform the DDNS service and the DDNS service will update your new IP address. The DDNS web domain
that you have chosen to use will then be updated to redirect to your new Internet IP address. The DDNS
service makes it so you never have to check or remember your Internet IP address. This feature is typically
used for users running servers, network cameras and other devices that require remote access.
