First of all, you need to have registered a dynamic DNS account with www.dyndns.org. This is for people
with a dynamic IP from their ISP or DHCP server that would still like to have a DNS name. The dynamic
DNS service provider will give you a password or key.
4.3.1 DYNDNS Wildcard
Enabling the wildcard feature for your host causes *.yourhost.dyndns.org to be aliased to the same IP address
as yourhost.dyndns.org. This feature is useful if you want to be able to use, for example,
www.yourhost.dyndns.org and still reach your hostname.
If you have a private WAN IP address, then you cannot use Dynamic DNS.
4.4 Configuring Dynamic DNS
To change your ZyAIR’s DDNS, click ADVANCED, SYSTEM and then the DDNS tab. The screen appears
as shown.
