Identify your network on the Internet

Configuration > Advanced Setting > Dynamic DNS
If you want to remotely access computers or devices on your network attached to your
router, you will need to be able to identify your network or router on the Internet. The
DDNS (Dynamic DNS) feature allows you to identify your network on the Internet even if
your Internet IP address changes as the DDNS service providers allow you to create a
domain name you can use to easily identify your network on the Internet.
Note: First, you will need to sign up for one of the DDNS service providers listed in the
Provider drop-down list.
1. Sign up for one of the DDNS available service providers list under Provider.
(e.g. dyndns.com, no-ip.com, etc.)
1. Log into your router management page (see "Access your router management page"
on page 50).
3. Click on Configuration at the top of the page, click on Advanced Setting, and click on
Dynamic DNS.
4. Next to DDNS, click Enable.
5. In the Provider drop-down list and select the provider for DDNS service you
registered.
