How to find your network on the Internet
Why would I need to find my network on the Internet?
If you want to
remotely access a USB drive attached to your router or view a web camera, you
need to find your network on the Internet
Working with several DDNS service providers, your router’s DDNS feature lets
you configure a domain name for your network, which you can then use to
easily find your network on the Internet If your ISP changes your network’s IP
address, the DDNS service providers detect the address change and continue
to route your domain name to that address
TIP
Before you configure DDNS on your router, you must sign up for
DDNS service from a DDNS service provider that’s supported by
your router
