DDNS
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.
