UPnP enabled device; this eliminates the need to manually configure port forwarding for the
UPP enabled application. If you don’t want to make configuration changes through UPnP,

The
Dynamic Domain Name System
allows you to update your current dynamic IP address
with one or many dynamic DNS services so that anyone can contact you (in NetMeeting,
CU-SeeMe, etc.). You can also access your FTP server or Web site on your own computer
using a DNS-like address (for instance myhost.dhs.org, where my host is a name of your
choice) that will never change instead of using an IP address that changes each time you
reconnect. Your friends or relatives will always be able to call you even if they don't know your
IP address. First of all, you need to have registered a dynamic DNS account with
www.dyndns.org. This is for people with a dynamic IP from their ISP or DHCP server that
would still like to have a DNS name. The Dynamic DNS service provider will give you a
password or key.
