Configure Dynamic DNS

If your cable service provider gave you a permanently assigned (fixed) IP address, you can
register a domain name and link that name with your IP address by a public Domain Name
Server (DNS). However, if your Internet account uses a dynamically assigned IP address,
you do not know your IP address in advance and the address can change frequently. In this
case, you can use a commercial Dynamic DNS (DDNS) service. This type of service lets you
register your domain to their IP address and forwards traffic directed at your domain to your
frequently changing IP address.
If your cable service provider assigns a private WAN IP address (such as 192.168.x.x or
10.x.x.x), the DDNS service does not work because private addresses are not routed on the
Internet.
Your cable data gateway contains a client that can connect to the DDNS service provided by
Dyn. First, visit their website and obtain an account and host name that you configure in the
cable data gateway. Then, whenever your cable service provider–assigned IP address
changes, your cable data gateway automatically contacts the DDNS service provider, logs in
to your account, and registers your new IP address. If your host name is hostname, for
example, you can reach your cable data gateway at http://hostname.dyn.com.
