The Dynamic DNS 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!
To register free for your Dynamic DNS host name, please visit
http://www.dyndns.org.
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.org from the "DNS Service" drop-down box (1).
2. Enter your DynDNS.org user name in the "User Name" field (2).
3. Enter your DynDNS.org password in the "Password" field (3).
4. Enter the DynDNS.org domain name you set up with DynDNS.org in the
"Domain Name" field (4).
5. Click "Update Dynamic DNS" to update your IP address (5).
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).
