N600 Wireless Dual Band Gigabit ADSL2+ Modem Router DGND3700v2
Your wireless modem router contains a client that can connect to the Dynamic DNS service
provided by DynDNS.org. First visit their website at
http://www.dyndns.org
and obtain an
account and host name that you configure in the wireless modem router. Then, whenever
your ISP-assigned IP address changes, your wireless modem router automatically contacts
the Dynamic DNS service provider, logs in to your account, and registers your new IP
address. If your host name is hostname, for example, you can reach your wireless modem
router at
http://hostname.dyndns.org
.
On the Advanced tab, select
Advanced Setup > Dynamic DNS
