DDNS Settings
Most internet service providers do not provide a static (dedicated) IP address.
Accordingly it can be difficult to remote access your camera. Dynamic DNS (DDNS)
is a free service that keeps track of your IP address, through these changes.
These instructions detail how to configure DDNS for your camera.
Note:
DDNS is NOT required if you are using Yoics to remote access your
camera.
