The Internet uses DNS servers to lookup domain names and translates
then into IP addresses. Domain names, such as www.yahoo.com, are just
easy to remember aliases for IP addresses. A dynamic DNS service
provides a means of updating your IP address so that you listing will be
current when your IP address changes. There are several services on the
Internet that are available for free. We will only cover one,
www.dyndns.org. You will need to register with the service and setup a
domain of your choice from the list they provide for you.
The DDNS service in our device works by uploading your new WAN IP
address to the servers when it changes. You would only need to enter the
account information in the DDNS setup page of your unit.
