Dynamic DNS

The Dynamic DNS feature enables users to set a static domain name for their internet connection even when the ISP only
provides a dynamic IP address.

By mapping the host name to the current public IP address of the router, users who want to connect to the router or any services
behind the router from the internet can just use the Dynamic DNS hostname instead of the IP Address which might change every
time the router connects to the Internet.

Before you can use a Dynamic DNS service, you need to register an account on one of the many supported Dynamic DNS
providers such as DynDNS.org, TZO.com or dhs.org.

After registering the account, the Dynamic DNS provider will provide you with the following details:

Host Name

Username/Email

Password/Key

To enable the Dynamic DNS feature on the unit, select the Enable option, choose the appropriate Dynamic DNS Provider and
enter the details supplied by your Dynamic DNS provider.

Click Save to save the settings or Undo to cancel.
