router via an easily accessible hostname, such as myrouter.mydyndns.com
The Following Dynamic DNS provider is supported
DynDNS.org
No-IP.com
Loopia.se
freedns.afraid.org

devices on your network will then use those specified DNS servers.

you can test the ping function to these addresses by pushing the Test now button directly below the
