Connections and settings
DDNS (Dynamic Domain Name System)
DDNS Service:
ON: Select to enable DDNS function.
This free service is very useful when combined with
the LG DDNS Server. It allows Internet users to con-
nect the LG DDNS Server using a Host Name, rather
than an IP Address. This also solves the problem
of having a dynamic IP address. With a dynamic IP
address, your IP address may change whenever you
connect, which makes it difficult to connect to you.
OFF: The DDNS function is not used.
Host Name: Using the virtual keyboard, enter the host
name you want to use.
Registered Host: The registered host name appears.
Update: Register the host name you typed in [Host
Name] to LG DDNS server.
Note:
Check the network settings before using this function. You
might have to properly configure your network settings to
use this function.
