3.7.12 Dynamic DNS Client
Each time your SOHOSpeed connects to the Internet, your ISP assigns a different IP address
to your SOHOSpeed. In order for you or other users to access your SOHOSpeed from the
WAN-side, you need to manually track the IP that is currently used. The Dynamic DNS
feature allows you to register your SOHOSpeed with a DNS server and access your
SOHOSpeed each time using the same host name. The Dynamic DNS Client page allows
you to enable/disable the Dynamic DNS feature.
