The Router offers a Dynamic Domain Name System (DDNS) feature. DDNS
lets you assign a fixed host and domain name to a dynamic Internet IP address.
It is useful when you are hosting your own website, FTP server, or other serv-
er behind the Router. Before you can use this feature, you need to sign up for
DDNS service at www.dyndns.org, a DDNS service provider.
DDNS Service To disable DDNS Service, keep the default setting, Disable. To
enable DDNS Service, follow these instructions:
1. Sign up for DDNS service at www.dyndns.org, and write down your User
Name, Password, and Host Name information.
2. On the DDNS screen, select Enable.
3. Complete the User Name, Password, and Host Name fields.
4. To save your new settings, click the Apply button. To cancel your changes,
click the Cancel button.

• Destination IP Address - The Destination IP Address is the address of
the network or host to which the static route is assigned.
• Subnet Mask - The Subnet Mask determines which portion of a
Destination LAN IP address is the network portion, and which portion
is the host portion.
• Gateway - This is the IP address of the gateway device that allows for
contact between the Router and the network or host.
• Interface - This interface tells you whether the Destination IP Address
is on the LAN & Wireless (internal wired and wireless networks), the
WA N (Internet), or Loopback (a dummy network in which one PC
acts like a network-necessary for certain software programs).
