DDNS (Dynamic Domain Name System) is a service that allows
network clients to connect to the wireless router, even with a
dynamic public IP address, through its registered domain name.
The wireless router is embedded with the ASUS DDNS service and
other DDNS services.
To set up DDNS:
1. From the navigation panel, go to Settings > WAN > DDNS.
2. Congure the following settings below. When done, click
Apply.
• Enable the DDNS Client: Enable DDNS to access the ASUS
router via the DNS name rather than WAN IP address.
• Server and Host Name: Choose ASUS DDNS or other DDNS.
If you want to use ASUS DDNS, ll in the Host Name in the
format of xxx.asuscomm.com (xxx is your host name).
• If you want to use a dierent DDNS service, click FREE TRIAL
and register online rst. Fill in the User Name or E-mail
Address and Password or DDNS Key elds.

requires one.

• When the wireless router is using a private WAN IP address (192.168.
x.x, 10.x.x.x, or 172.16.x.x), as indicated by a yellow text.
• The router may be on a network that uses multiple NAT tables.
