III-3-2-6. DDNS

Dynamic DNS (DDNS) is a service which provides a hostname-to-IP service for
dynamic IP users. The changing nature of dynamic IPs means that it can be
difficult to access a service provided by a dynamic IP user; a DDNS service
though can map such dynamic IP addresses to a fixed hostname, for easier
access. The travel router supports several DDNS service providers, please go
to their website(s) and register for a DDNS account.
Note: Dynamic IP users are those who will
automatically be assigned a different IP address
each time he or she connects to the Internet.
