DDNS
Dynamic DNS (DDNS) provides users on the Internet with a method to tie
a specific domain name to the unit’s dynamically assigned IP address.
DDNS allows your domain name to follow your IP address automatically by
changing your DNS records when your IP address changes.
The ADSL Router provides access to two DDNS service providers,
DynDns.org, and TZO. To set up an DDNS account, visit the websites of
these service providers at www.dyndns.org,or www.tzo.com.
