Using Dynamic Dns - Belkin F5D8232-4 User Manual

Using the Web-Based
Advanced User Interface
Using Dynamic DNS – The Dynamic DNS service allows you to alias a dynamic
IP address to a static host name in any of the many domains DynDNS.org
offers, allowing your network computers to be more easily accessed from
various locations on the Internet. DynDNS.org provides this service, for up
to five host names, free to the Internet community. The Dynamic DNSSM
service is ideal for a home website, file server, or to make it easy to access
your home PC and stored files while you're at work. Using the service can
ensure that your host name always points to your IP address, no matter how
often your ISP changes it. When your IP address changes, your friends and
associates can always locate you by visiting yourname.dyndns.org instead!
To register free for your Dynamic DNS host name,
please visit http://www.dyndns.org.
