Dynamic DNS
Introduction
The Dynamic DNS service allows you to assign a dynamic DNS host name (for example john.dyndns.org) to
a broadband connection even if it is using a dynamic IP address. As soon as the device gets a new IP address,
the dynamic DNS server updates its entry to the new IP address.

Before you can configure Dynamic DNS, you first have to create an account at a Dynamic DNS service
provider. For example:
www.dyndns.org
www.no-ip.com
www.dtdns.com
