Dynamic DNS
The Dynamic DNS (DDNS) feature allows you to host a server (Web, FTP, Game Server, etc…) using a domain name
that you have purchased (www.whateveryournameis.com) with your dynamically assigned IP address. Most broadband
Internet Service Providers assign dynamic (changing) IP addresses. Using a DDNS service provider, your friends can
enter in your domain name to connect to your server no matter what your IP address is.
