Disable SIP ALG

The Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) Application Level Gateway (ALG) is enabled by default
to optimize VoIP phone calls that use the SIP. The Disable SIP ALG check box allows you to
disable the SIP ALG. Disabling the SIP ALG might be useful when running certain
applications.

Dynamic DNS

If your network has a permanently assigned IP address, you can register a domain name and
have that name linked with your IP address by public Domain Name Servers (DNS).
However, if your Internet account uses a dynamically assigned IP address, you do not know
in advance what your IP address is, and the address can change frequently. In this case, use
a commercial Dynamic DNS service that lets you register your domain to its IP address and
forwards traffic directed at your domain to your frequently changing IP address.
The router has a client that can connect to a Dynamic DNS service provider. Once you have
configured your ISP account information in the router, whenever your ISP-assigned IP
address changes, your router contacts your Dynamic DNS service provider, logs in to your
account, and registers your new IP address.
