Using dynamic dns
The Dynamic DNS service allows you to alias a dynamic IP address to a static host name in any of the many domains DynDNS.org offers, allowing
your network computers to be more easily accessed from various locations on the Internet. DynDNS.org provides this service, for up to five host
names, free to the Internet community.
The Dynamic DNS SM service is ideal for a home website, file server, or to make it easy to access your home PC and stored files while you’re at work.
Using the service can ensure that your host name always points to your IP address, no matter how often your ISP changes it. When your IP address
changes, your friends and associates can always locate you by visiting yourname.dyndns.org instead!
setting up the Router’s dynamic dns Update Client
You must register with DynDNS.org’s free update service before using
this feature. Once you have your registration, follow the directions below.
1� Select DynDNS as the “DDNS Service” (1).

4� Enter the DynDNS.org domain name you set up with DynDNS.org
in the “Domain Name” field (4).
5� Click “Update Dynamic DNS” (5) to update your IP address.
Whenever your IP address assigned by your ISP changes, the
Router will automatically update DynDNS.org’s servers with your
new IP address. You can also do this manually by clicking the
“Update Dynamic DNS” button (5).
