2.4.3 Dynamic DNS

If your ISP does not give you a fixed Internet IP address (i.e. the Internet

address you

‟re using when you access the Internet is not always the same –

ask your ISP for detailed information), you can use this function to help you

locate the IP address of this IP camera when you

‟re away from home or office.

Before you can use this function, you

‟ll need to apply for an account at

dyndns.org (

http://www.dyndns.org

). Detailed instructions of how to apply a

.org‟s website.
