How to access your network on the Internet

If you want to remotely access a drive attached to your router or view a web camera on your home
network, you need to be able to easily enter your network's address into a web browser.
Working with a DDNS (Dynamic Domain Name System) service provider, your router's DDNS feature
lets you configure a domain name for your network, which you can then use to easily find your
network on the Internet. If your ISP changes your network's IP address (which can happen frequently),
the DDNS service providers detect the address change and continue to route your domain name to
that address.
Tip---- - Before you configure DDNS on your router, you must sign up for DDNS service from a DDNS
service provider that's supported by your router.
To set up DDNS:
1. Sign up for DDNS service at www.dyndns.org.
Note—All of the information provided to you by the DDNS provider.
2. Log in to Linksys Smart Wi-Fi. (See ''How to connect to Linksys Smart Wi-Fi'' on page 10.)
3. Under Router Settings, click Security, then click the Apps and Gaming tab. The DDNS screen
opens.
4. In the Select a provider drop-down list under the DDNS header, select your DDNS service
provider.
