Dynamic DNS

The 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.

Enable this option only if you have purchased your own domain name and

registered with a dynamic DNS service provider.

Select a dynamic DNS service provider from the pull-down list.

Enter your host name.

Enter the username or key provided by your service provider.

Enter the password or key provided by your service provider.

Re-type the password or key provided by your service provider.

IP address has not change. The timeout period is entered in hours.
