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 server behind the router. Before using this feature, you need to
sign up for DDNS service providers such as www.dyndns.org
, www.oray.net or www.comexe.cn.
The Dynamic DNS client service provider will give you a password or key.
