Dynamic DNS: Name Instead of IP Address
Determining the IPv4 Address for Accessing the FRITZ!Box
If you have enabled ports for forwarding in the FRITZ!Box, oth-
er Internet users can access your computers at the IP address
assigned to your FRITZ!Box by the Internet service provider.
This is a public IPv4 address.
Here is how to determine the public IPv4 address of the
FRITZ!Box:
1.
Open any Internet page in order to establish an Internet
connection.
2.
Open the FRITZ!Box user interface and enable the ad-
vanced view in the user interface.
3.
The FRITZ!Box’s public IPv4 address is displayed on the
“Overview” page in the “Connections” area.

Dynamic DNS: Name Instead of IP Address
Dynamic DNS is an Internet service that makes it possible for
the FRITZ!Box to remain accessible from the Internet at all
times under a fixed name, even though the public IP address
changes.
Dynamic DNS can be used as an alternative to MyFRITZ!. Both
services can be used in parallel.
You must register with a dynamic DNS provider to use this
service. When you register, you agree on the fixed name (do-
main name) at which your FRITZ!Box should be accessible
from the Internet. You also define a user name and password.
Every time the Internet connection is interrupted the Internet
service provider re-assigns the IP address. The IP address
may change in the process. Therefore it is a good idea to use
MyFRITZ! or dynamic DNS so that the IP address can always
be reached under the same name. For more information
about MyFRITZ!, see the section

namic DNS, see the section
