to change periodically. Just how often it changes, depending on your ISP. A dynamic IP
address complicates remote access since you may not know what your current WAN IP
address is when you want to access your network over the Internet. The solution to the
dynamic IP address problem comes in the form of a dynamic DNS service.
The Internet uses DNS servers to look up domain names and translates them into IP
addresses. Domain names are just easy to remember aliases for IP addresses. A dynamic
DNS service is unique because it provides a means of updating your IP address so that your
listing will remain current when your IP address changes. There are several excellent DDNS
services available on the Internet and best of all they're free to use. One such service you can
use is www.planetddns.com. You'll need to register with the service and set up the domain
name of your choice to begin using it. Please refer to the home page of the service for detailed
instructions.
